> Hi all,
> I wanted to update you all on Mambo's progress. As you may recall, he
> showed fear of traffic and loud noises when he first came home. I do live
> on a busy street, with narrow sidewalks and the traffic being right next
> to you. I got some great advice from some lists I am on and from the
> trainers at Guide Dogs for the Blind about some things to try, which
> seemed to help immensely! With daily walks, he has really improved, but
> still startles at times.
> Earlier this week, I had a follow-up visit from GDB. It had been scheduled
> for a while, and I wanted to make sure that we were safe. On our walk,
> Mambo did really well. He still did startle at some noises and vehicles,
> but nothing like it was. The important thing is that he has a quick
> recovery, he gets startled and then gets right back to work.
> The trainer said that I am a really good handler and that she was very
> impressed with our work. She says we look like we've been together a lot
> longer than 2 months! I feel the same way, I am just so happy that he is
> working out so well. He has a strong work ethic and loves his job. We
> still have a few kinks to work out, but I am just so happy!
