[nagdu] Empty chairs at empty tables...

[Daryl Marie]

haaaaa, Rox!  Jenny did the same thing during training.  She is a creature of habit, so if we go somewhere, she likes to find the same seat we have already sat at. During training, we went to a coffee shop, got a table, no problem!  A week later, we went back, ordered our coffee, and I told Jenny to find a seat.  She found the same table we had sat at before, which had an empty seat... but across from that seat, there's some poor guy listening to his IPod.  The trainer burst out laughing.

It's something we're still working on - finding empty seats when I ask for them. She LOVES to find chairs and benches just for giggles, but still needs a bit of work finding them on command. LOL

Hi, y'all, it's Rox with Soleil from New Orleans.  
Soleil has finished her formal guide training and  I have taught Soleil to find empty chairs which comes in dead handy, mostly... 
Yesterday, I went for a coffee at a new coffee house down the road.  I got my drink, and told Soleil to find a seat, which she did.  I put my coffee down, and then realized there was already someone sitting at the table, in another seat.  Oy! Dog! I guess I need to be more specific.  The guy was leaving anyway, but... I was super embarrissed.
I think Soleil is trying to tell me I need new friends!
