Just a short note about how pleased I was with Diva earlier on this evening. We'd gone to watch Severnside's league match against Chippenham as Ella is in season so not competing, and I had Diva out for the socialisation. Oooh she's lovely! Bright, happy, confident - everything you'd want in a future agility dog, keeping everything crossed! As if that wasn't enough, I had Sue James hold her for some 'puppy' recalls to me - where the pup is just held, doesn't need to wait in position before being recalled. Two brilliant ones to start, so Sue upped the ante by having some treats in her hand whilst she was holding her. She was sniffing away like a good 'un, but as soon as I said her name her attention was straight back on me and she returned as fast as she could - that's my girl!
Today I'm grateful for Diva's great attitude, despite the misfortune of her accident. Whilst it's holding back some of our training, our relationship is already very strong - love my puppy!
