I'm glad this is working for you, LeeAnn! Just be careful because there seems to be one in every group who think they know more about dogs than you do & won't follow your instructions. It is especially hard in a Nursing Home because of many residents' reduced ability to hear and/or understand what you are saying.
Your cousin is a great place to start with working on the kid-thing! Once Harley is happy with him, it would be a good idea to extend it to other kids before "turning him loose".
