Hi there,
I saw the instructor who trained my dog today, at first I had him sit,
then I gave the leash over to her, and he went crazy.
I thought it was wonderful that he loved on her so much.
then when she gave the leash back to me he settled rite down and laid
down on the floor just like that.
When we went out to work, his work was wonderful.
We walked a mile, then went to the store had coffee visited and came
home again.
She was so pleased on his work, and how well he was watching
everything, my feet hands face and very attentive to my needs.
When she goes back to the school she will give a good standing for the team.
We did a swell trick.
first when we work the dog we have the leash around the rist hand going
threw the leash, you then slide the leash so that you can do one more
rap around the rist.
This shortens the leash so that the dog tried to put nose down you will
feel it and be able to give a swell correction.
I love it.
His pull was quite nice, not hard not soft just firm and gentle.
He listens to my voice, and his ears go up as though he wanted to fly.
I love it.
We are a team.
She shared that he loves being here.
She said that when you praise the dog, the more praise they get the
better the dog loves it.
Or shall I say the more the dog loves it.
There are dogs that will do the work but they are not happy in the home.
Because folks either feel silly talking to the dog, and praising the dog silly.
You just talk in a very calm voice, but they love to hear it.
It was wonderful.
