My new client Lucy the mini Goldendoodle came to the TV taping but I didn’t really get a chance to meet her while there. (It was quite a busy day for yours truly.)

I was expecting a typical revved up greeting when I walked in the door for our first training session on Saturday – we’re talking Goldendoodle puppy, folks – but she wasn’t having it. She gently took the bone I offered and disappeared.

Oh no. Another shy dog?

Between the shy dogs and surly dogs I think I’ve got my dog training niche all worked out.

Happily, Lucy, like Rocky before her, rallied. She performed all of the Week 1 exercises with ease, and then submitted to my camera for a modeling session.

I think I’m going to have some fun with this redhead!
