 "Progress, from my experience in the White Dog Army," Bailey schooled me, "happens in steps so tiny that one day you look and are surprised by how far things have come."

Taking a cue from her observation, Steve and I took a low key response even though we wanted to shout in joy and break out treats. "Hey, good job, guys," Steve told them as he walked past into the office. "Roman, I see you are using your heart and your head. Lilly, you are my calm and patient Girl," I told each. The rest of the WDA caught my eye to give half-wags so that I knew they saw as well...and that I understood reward treats for all would wait until normal afternoon treats.
