Nice!
I never had Gracie professionally trained but did it myself. I wish I had sent her out for training because I couldn’t focus on her training as well as I had wanted to but Kathy’s care was more important.
I was very satisfied with Gracie’s skills and abilities though others could easily see a couple of faults… though I overlooked them or corrected them.

See you at Hausmann’s Kenny?

Kenny, you are a lucky guy. Congratulations on your training success. Only problem is you misspelled "Whoa".

When I was training my Wirehair, Eva, I found that the most important command after "come" was "WHOA". Pointing and retrieving came later.
