True!  But even sweeter is that first walk with no trainer behind you, wild 
and free and on the loose!
I remember my first walk, but I don't remember the trainer being very close 
to me, and I appreciate that.  I'm sure he wasn't far away, but he let us 
take that first walk without a lot of interference, just me and Glade.
