All grown up!
Miss Honey June is a year and two months old now! She’s been training since she was eight weeks old to be my service dog and has been doing phenomenally. We’re going to Chicago this weekend!
Just wanted to update our friends here on all of our progress. :)

Great breed for service & therapy. So eager to please, and smart, when they wanted to be.

she's stunning and so lovely. any training tips to recommend? not the same, I know, but I used to do therapy work with my old dog and would love to do the same with my setter (eventually!).

My biggest thing with her training was super socializing her as a puppy so she was bulletproof in all surroundings. I worked for Disney while she was a baby so we did a lot of resorts where she got exposed to boats, horses, fireworks, etc safely and in a controlled environment. Getting her to be neutral to her surroundings was most important to me.
