Mark,
Congratulations! I was wondering how things were going for you. Glad
to hear all is going so well.
When Monty sees birds or squirrels, he will stalk them. He still guides
when he does this, but I can tell. He stiffens up and his feet pick up
more sort of like prancing. He only does this when the small furries
are close and don't run off. I think he's still holding out hope of
getting one. *sigh* Sorry to disappoint the big guy. If it goes on
for more than a few seconds, or he starts turning his body to follow the
animal I'll verbally remind him to get back with the program. Usually
that works, but if it doesn't I just stop and have him sit for a bit.
Anyway I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure your trainer is aware and
helping you sort through it. It takes a while to get the kinks worked
out and to get things running smoothly.
All my best,
Julie
