Derby has a good recall, is housebroken, crate trained, and knows basic commands such as "here" "sit" "bed" "outside" "leave it" "bring" etc...
He rides good in the car, eagerly jumping in, and sitting quietly for the ride. He is food motivated, and has a willing to please nature, which makes training easy.
