Fanny has been working on getting more comfortable in different environments. I have just been tossing food on the ground for her to sniff and eat in different places almost everyday. On December 10, she went with Cheeky and Sizzle to the small battlefield near Gaines Mill Battlefield. Fanny happily cleaned up all the hot dogs left behind on Cheeky and Sizzle's tracks. While we were going down Sizzle's tracka park ranger drove up and approached to speak to me and Fanny barked at him. After he left she went right back to picking up treats and seemed fine.
It was 50°F, not windy but chilly and sunny at 3 pm. We went tracking at the field outside my subdivision on near 360. Fanny picked up hot dogs on the first track but went over them on the next two tracks. This may have been because the grass was shin high and she had to dig around for them in the high grass. Fanny voluntarily laid down at each article. At the second article, she looked around before laying down like she had to make sure the coast was clear. Fanny still wants to continue tracking when we're done even though I move the lead to her collar. She tracked all the way back to the van.
