True was picked up by Dan on Thursday from Yass. She had been vaccinated while at the pound.

True on the left and Jerry on the right (he will be fostered by Juniper's adopters)

She has a lovely shiny coat but at 21kg is very fat for a female Kelpie

Progress Table

House-training	I don't think she's been in a house before but she has taken to house-training well. No accidents. She uses the dog door to let herself outside.
Doorway etiquette	Humans through doorways first. She is very polite.
Car travel	OK with wearing a harness and travelling in a car in a crate. Very calm, no fuss.
Mealtime manners	No food manners at all. No food aggression but has no commonsense and will approach other dogs eating. Has not been taught to wait
Basic focus work (Watch), sit and drop	No training at all
Go to your mat/crate/bed	No training at all but naturally very happy to go to her crate or a dog bed or a mat
1-2 camera-friendly tricks	No training at all
Assess friendliness/neutrality	Very calm and friendly around dogs and people. Not pushy, not aggro.
Assess other behaviours	No mouthing or licking. Very curious. Has some counter surfing tendencies.

Optional:

Sit-Stay	No training at all
Drop-stay	No training at all
Recall	No training at all
Loose leash walking	No training at all but isn't too bad on a leash
Slightly more complex trick	No training at all
