My Skills and Tricks
Loren and I like working together on my skills. I love working on being as smart as I can be.
When it's nap time, Loren puts down a pillow and I lay my head on it. Then he covers me with my blanket that has my name on it. After I've rested for a little bit, I get up and hand him my pillow.
Loren and I spend a lot of time in places where i need to be quiet so I learned to whisper when he asks me to. If you have your volume turned up, you can hear that Iām being very quiet

I was learning to jump through a hula hoop. Now I can jump through Loren's arms so we don't need the hoop anymore. This was a class at Ruff House.

When Loren tells me it's naptime, I just lay down and take a little snooze under my blanket. Loren & I adapted this trick from the one called "Bang! We wanted it cozy, not mean.

I can balance on my back legs. That's one of the reasons that one of my nicknames is Lina Ballerina (the name of this website!)

This is a cool challenge. I need to figure out which of the cups has a treat hidden in it.

When Loren points to something and says "Lina, Up" I use it to practice leaping up onto something solid and hold my balance.
