Day 3

Day 3 of service dog team training down. It went well today. I had to teach my wife some commands that I had learned on my own yesterday. It was odd being the teacher instead of the teachee. She did great although she thought I was being hard on her, I just to get things right so we don't screw up all the hard work that has been put into Natalie by Alicia and others. Carlisle did great with her, he got to go over some commands with her like lap, and bump. he loved the bump, it was like a shark bumping something he said. She also did a search and retrieval of Carlisle, she found him each time. We are so excited for this life changing experience. There is never enough thank yous to go around.

Monday the 15th we begin our team training. Carlisle is so excited to start the training and see Natalie again. He has been talking about having Natalie sleep with him, go to Chocolate World and meet his guinea pigs.
