Took the pups to Ladera to look at Christmas lights.

I’ve never had a dog named Lucky, but we did have a Jack Russell/Pomeranian mix named Chuckie (for good reason) who accessed our roof from a balcony, then jumped to the ground 25’ below. He missed the concrete and landed on a sloped lawn, and survived, albeit with both hind femurs sawed off by the vet because they kept popping out of joint. Surprisingly to me, though not to the vet, the scar tissue formed new hip joints. I guess we could have called him Lucky.

Too long ago for pictures on my iPad though.

Josie, or JoJo, is our 12 y.o. GoldenDoodle, and is still as playful as ever. She’s a, great watch-dog, frisbee-dog, and family member. We’ve had a number of good dogs over the years; none better than her.

Seams to be working. Without giving her a command she walked next to me on my left. Would not go ahead of me and sat at the front door until i opened it and went inside, Then she entered.

A little update. She is doing really well. She walks very easy. Really do not need the leash, but it is required. She has a raised bed that we use as her "place". That is the command we give for her to get on the raised bed and stay there. So far she has made it an hour staying on it. To show someone how good she is doing and had her "place" on a drainage overflow that was raised up about 3 ft. She jumped up and stayed on it until I freed her. She understands all the words needed, but she will still test us. Most of the training we still do, she does before we tell her to. So far really happy with the training.

Holly is doing well. She at this point anticipates command and does what you want before you can get the words out. We are at my dads this weekend with my brothers and sisters and she is still behaving even with all the distractions. My family loves dogs so she is getting a ton of attention.

One command called "place" is working really well. When putting her on "place" she has to stay on her bed. She can do an hour on "place" with zero attemps to get off. Works great when you have 10 people sitting down to eat or play a game.

We all can get lucky with a pup or kid that seems is just perfect and always does the right thing. In reality you only get back what you put in. Glad to here she is responding well. Consistency is the key. Good job
