Stay!

One of Frito's best skills to date is her ability to hold either a sit stay or a down stay at impressive distances and with a variety of distractions. One example is when she was on a puppy sit in Westchester County with Michelle, who took Frito to a music conservatory and had Frito down stay on the stage while Michelle walked to the back of the music hall.

More recently, Frito and I practiced a sit stay outside in my neighborhood. I live near a Jewish history museum that has several different monuments and fountains outside. One fountain in particular is very long and narrow and right at Frito's level. You can hear the water trickling down the fountain, which could potentially be distracting. Frito held this sit stay while I walked around the fountain - twice! What a good girl!
