Recently, I put Atka in a down-stay in Petco (during an adoption event!) and walked to a far corner of the store where he couldn't see me. Of course, I did have a trainer sneak-watching him just in case! He was successful and I couldn't have been more proud. It's the little things that really get you excited to push forward!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03034825938128682200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247022130749091471.post-18238842671042001752015-09-12T23:59:54.275-07:002015-09-12T23:59:54.275-07:00Ah, jingling tags.

I ask the boys "do you feel dumb?" :) But even settling a key barking fest is helpful to get them desensitized to jingling. We have been doing homeschooling for a while now and I am aiming to get back to some classes. I know Huxley misses agility classes.

Nala's has gotten a lot better--but I've also learned that it's much, much easier for her if I pick up my own pace. Fortunately Zoe and Phoenix are smaller than Nala--you probably won't have to run as fast as I do to match their trotting pace. :D<br /><br />I bet your girls would love Barn Hunt, especially critter-happy Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247022130749091471.post-18543392354368284022015-09-09T10:29:19.888-07:002015-09-09T10:29:19.888-07:00You guys are always working on something fun!

The trainer who taught Boca's basic obedience suggested we try freestyle - the lessons are one on one and she does it with her own reactive dog. Maybe we will look into it in the future. I'll be happy if I can teach Boca a few Lara Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16661093611286883883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247022130749091471.post-88144445625243433112015-09-08T16:41:40.408-07:002015-09-08T16:41:40.408-07:00That would be a challenge, having dogs pass by the...That would be a challenge, having dogs pass by the door all the time.

They LOVE training classes, though. When I'm not taxi-driving my kids so much I'll get them into another structured class. It'll be good for all three of us. :)Elizabeth Keenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710489912663020646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247022130749091471.post-68635837174420140432015-09-07T17:30:10.162-07:002015-09-07T17:30:10.162-07:00We're doing home schooling here too!

My goal is to have my dogs bark briefly when someone is approaching our house (we live in a secluded place) and then to stop when I ask them to. I'm looking forward to your post about this so we can learn from your expertise!KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247022130749091471.post-3217958743208342492015-09-07T16:46:28.041-07:002015-09-07T16:46:28.041-07:00Fun goals!

Even now I'll have her heel or just walk normally, and then let her "alright, go ahead!" and pull for a bit.
