 | |  | | She's so smart and so loving.
Last week, I left her in a fenced yard with another small dog while the other dog's owner and I were getting things out of the garage for an adoption day. Well, Addy figured out how to open the gate--and instead of exploring the rest of the property, which was semi-wooded, she came right over to me and followed me around while I worked.
Once I was able to give her my full attention, she was happy to explore some of the property--but didn't go far from me and came back whenever I told her she was going too far.
Doesn't sound like much, I know, but we've never worked on off-leash walking like that because we live in a very urban area on a street that gets treated as a main drag--lots of traffic going very fast. |  |  | |  |

I like how she is so responsive. I tell her nite nite and she heads straight for her kennel. Her recall is awesome. I have a similar story to Addy's. I accidentally let go of her leash in my new yard , and when I called her, she came tearing around the rosebush she was behind to drop at my feet
I love how when we go walking she just looks at things and doesn't try to get to them. Also how she does her zoomies on her long leash in the grass
