Yaaaaay Ida Finally Stood Up!

We have been working on "up" for such a long time. Ida is so shy that it has taken ages to train her. But finally a breakthrough!

Both paws off the ground! Yesterday the cat came and meowed outside the door while we were training, I couldn't get anything out of Ida after that so I was so surprised that she responded really well today. And I recorded the moment!

How come the picture shows up in edit, but not the post?

something to do with the coding, i think maybe because you are linking from a site, you have to put the link into the image or media button.

I think that this is a lesson not to be discouraged! I was nearly ready to give up. Ida is not very confident, so standing up is a huge achievement for her. I got her to stand up three times today. Never give up!
Its like when I couldn't figure out how to get my dog to bow. I literally spend months getting discouraged, giving up, trying again, giving up again! Then one day I found something on the internet that worked, within one session Hemi was bowing.
