[Abigail Bolling]

Hi all!
I got my dog on Tuesday.
She is a 50 pound black labrador.
Her name is really cool. It's...!

Cricket!

She is a super fast walker with a strong pull. She and I just finished 
our first downtown walk and we did really really well.
A side note. Cricket was originally bred to be a show dog, which means 
she is both brilliant and beautiful! :) She has a little bit of English 
lab in her, but I think mostly American.

If any of you plan to get a dog from Leader,
1: Christy is an amazing trainer (I don't remember her last name...)
2: they are breeding softer dogs who don't need to be corrected as hard. 
A slight setback is that there is a harness modification that they 
sometimes have to make. The dogs are not wanting to let the harness 
handle touch their back..
Also, they are issuing dogs with martingale collars now instead of the 
slip chain. My girl does fine with them, and they look really really 
nice. They are small linked chain with the actual collar part being made 
of leather.

Anyway, I wanted to give yall an update. Hope you guys are having an 
amazing Thursday!

Abby and Cricket
