Cora

Update: Cora passed the test ( with flying colors) and is now a Therapy dog!! Happy to report Cora is doing really well. She took her first therapy dog training class this past sunday and the wheelchairs, oddly dressed strangers, 9 other dogs, noises and distractions didn't rattle her much at all. She loved the attention from our testing team, and passsed the temperament screening with flying colors. And, her obedience training is coming along! I think we should be ready for certification this summer, possibly late spring. She's a real love and we're so happy she's part of our family. She seems to be settled in--she's not in her crate anymore when we're gone at work (and MOST times, nothing is disturbed in the house!), she's been getting more off leash priveldges as her recall becomes reliable, she goes everywhere with us happily (but loves to come home and climb on the couch), and seems generally comfortable with life here. ~Deb
