Handler Extraordinaire - Spotlight on Nadia puppies!

It's a big job. . . and someone has to do it!  G loves to help when it's time to come to the puppy barn. Here, G is learning about alertness, and how that might look on a mamma dog who is watching over her puppies.  G learned about how to comfort the mamma when one of the babies is being worked with by a puppy handler. . . first, G talked sweetly to Nadia, pet her, and assured her it's all okay; and two, G held out the puppy for a moment so that Nadia could smell and lick her baby -  and then G gently put the baby back in the her own lap.  This may seem elementary, but it's a big deal!  Our movements and handling are one of the ways we communicate trust with our mammas and their puppies.  Great job, G!

We think so too. Our Sophie wears the same smile as her mom, Nadia.
