[nagdu] Fetching

[Katherine Lawson]

Ha! Good to know I'm not the only one who taught my guide party
tricks. She knows Paw (shake), High five (I can specify each paw with
both these commands), roll over, circle, and "get your bone". I used
food rewards in the beginning and she picked the tricks up very
quickly.
