[Sean Robertson]

Archie is really good at finding a seet. If I tell him to find a seet. He 
takes me to it. Then puts his head on it.

>> Hi, Dan,
>> Yes, Pilot does encourage the users to use the find command and encourage 
>> the dog to find things.
>> I have taken that step further with Odie.
>> Once he does find a seat or even a trash can, I've taught him to put his 
>> head on the object and touch it to also indicate that he's done what I've 
>> asked of him.
>> When he does, the "good boy and good guide dog" praise comes out of me.
>> He definitely will get excited and happy over the praise.
>> Yes, I'm doing well and am still hanging in there.
>> *Smiles*
>> Dale, Odie and I will be going back out to our friend Alisha Robbinson's 
>> place next Friday.
>> She is having to hook up her DVD player to her television downstairs as 
>> the one in her bedroom went dead completely.
>> Her daughter Hannah is wanting to see Odie again as she really loves him 
>> to pieces.
>> So, we'll make that trip back out to her neck of the woods in Aurora, 
>> Colorado.
>> To Hannah, Odie is like another friend to play with, despite that he's a 
>> huge German black labrador.
