One year and a long way to go

I have a good dog. But she has a long way to go to be a Very good dog. But it just takes some patience and some time (and the training classes we are starting in December). Now, when I come home, she waits for me-- sitting. She'll sit until I give her a little snuggle. Sometimes she gets too excited during the snuggle and jumps and I am ignoring that behavior and only giving her snuggles when she sits down.

Look how much bigger she is than the first day I got here... same place... same dog... 1 year earlier...
