Hero Dogs Gracie’s January Adventures
Hi, it’s me, Gracie. It has been a while so I thought I would let you know about my latest adventures. Well, I am a weekly elementary school visitor and the outside school patrols all know me! I also go to physical therapy every week with Robin. The office enjoys having me there. They like dogs and especially me!
Not that everything with me is about fun. I am a Hero Dog in training after all. This month we went into Rockville and worked on walking on grated surfaces. It took me a while before I would walk on them, but a tasty treat proved to be all the incentive I needed. I am also getting better at riding in the car. As you know, I prefer to look out the window from the passenger’s seat, but, I know I have to settle on the floorboard and am trying my best to do that. I still enjoy long walks through the neighborhood and visiting with my new buddies along the way. I walk so much better now that I am in a harness.
One of my favorite things to do is Puppy Class! I am working on my manners and have mastered sit and waiting for my food. (That is a really hard one because I love food.) The best thing about puppy class is playing with Scotty afterwards!
I enjoy being outside at home with the big dogs, Jake and Marley. They play chase and even a little hide-and-seek. Two weeks ago a big turkey buzzard flew down in the yard and scared me. I stuck my tail between my legs and ran for cover! Hey, you would have too if a giant monster came out of the sky after you.
I promise to tell you more soon so come back and visit again.
