The dog graduated....now what?

I have to admit, I was expecting that we would be done with these classes and she would be magically transformed into Latte the SUPER-DUPER OBEDIENT DOG. Not so, BUT she is better than she was. She knows sit(does she stay sat; NO) she is MUCH better about barking and carrying on when people come over AND she is great at walking on the leash now, I am so surprised at how far she's come with that. I guess we keep working with her and in another year, with a little luck, she'll be a "dream". Having a dog is hard work, and takes some well planned routines that should be planned out a bit better than we did it, but we're (still) learning............
