I have been meaning to e-mail you and let you know how Bond (we named him River) is doing.  He pretty much acted like he was home from the moment he walked into our cabin.  I took him for a long run on our snowmobile trails, and have been taking him out for long runs/walks every day.  We even went for a night run in the rain last night!

We took him to a softball tournament our first weekend and he did well with all the excitement.  We took him to my uncle’s place this past weekend and he was with 5 other dogs!

River does have a few issues, and separation anxiety doesn’t seem to be a problem for him in our cabin.  Of course the leash reactivity (which we are working on and he is getting better being calm around other dogs while on a leash). I plan to work on these issues every day and focus on them in the training course.

We are very happy with River and he has added a lot of love and value to our home!  Thank you for training him and helping him become a great dog for us!
