Today at the park Sarra got into a bit of a spat with another dog while I was about 100ft away. My next door neighbor and friend was able to give her the cease and desist command (Out) and have her sit next to him until I was able to come over. Considering her fear of men and general distractability at the park this is a huge step. It should also be noted that she left the other dog completely alone even though that dog came up to her several more times.
And now I have the benefit of a very sleepy dog while I do my calculus homework and that is good for everyone.
