Elsie Graduated from her Dogs Trust "Puppy Training" Lessons Today

Elsie completed her 4 lesson course in "Dog Training / Puppy Training" today

The lessons were run by the Dogs Trust and took place in the family centre at St. Mary's church.

Elsie received a certificate and here she is with the Dogs Trust team on completion of her course. They are enticing her with some doggy treats.

We learnt how to
- "Stay",
- come to call / recall ..."here Elsie"
- to leave distracting elements ..."Leave it"
- how to walk off lead and come to call (recall)
- run off lead and come to call (recall)
- be sociable with humans
- be sociable with other dogs
- "stay" as we walk away

I think she was "star pupil" on some of the lessons (but then I'm biased)

Aww! She looks lovely and her trainers look like a great team. She surpassed Will. We're still working on stay, heel and being polite around others.

[Judith Johnson]

You must be so proud of her Phil. Well done Elsie

[Maggiemae]

All directions are so important! She would be a quick learner, I reckon!

[Lesley]

Ah good girl, Elsie!

[Cathy Donohoue]

What a good girl. I have always loved "Dog School."

Well done Elsie.

[Kathy A]

Congrats Elsie

[Dione Giorgio]

Well done, Elsie. She may be a bit shy, or frightened, with her tail down like that. She has grown into a lovely lady and will definitely attract new posers for your portraits. A memorable shot for you to remind of those lovely ladies who provided Elsie with the puppy training.

Clearly she's a clever doggie!

[Jenny]

What a sweetie!

[Carole Sandford]

Well done Elsie!

[Sally Ings]

Congratulations to both you and Elsie, Phil. She is growing up so fast.

[Mike]
