When Dad (Peter) was in Oxford, Josie was giving everybody loads of trouble! I knew that Josie needed her alpha, so we had to do some serious training with her. We trained her with some Cheerios because she loves them. What we did with them: we used them like a treat to get her used to our commanded words, and when she did it right, we gave at least one to her. Once Dad (Peter) came back from Oxford, she was so excited to see him that she jumped all over him. Then when he started training her, she got much better.
Once when I walked with Josie and my friend back from the public library, I gave Josie to my friend, Josie saw a bird across the street, charged towards it, out of my friend's hand, across the street, and it was very scary because she could have gotten killed. She crossed the street again at our garage and I caught her. Sometimes when I look at Josie sitting down beside me I can't believe that she did all that.
