Fur Saver and Prey Drive

Isaac doesn’t look any bigger to me, but the 21″ fur saver tells another story. When I ordered it I got a 21″ and a 23″. He could almost look at the ground and have the 21″ fall off his head, not so any longer. It slides on easy, but has gotten to be a lot tougher getting off. We are only using the dead ring, but if I was using it for corrections it would be way too short. Might be moving to the 23″.

Prey Drive Progress…..Isaac is now good for 20 minutes of two hose (yes I’m using chunks of garden hose). He’ll chase, return, chase return, as long as every once in awhile I hold one in my hand and let him run in and ‘hit’ it and play a little tug with him. To think I was worried :) As soon as they go in my pocket he sits and stairs at me (not my pocket) until they come back out (look seems to have paid off as well). He’s even getting pushy for them, after a couple minutes of stairing he occasionally starts barking at me (which he never does for anything else, not even dinner). Still tease him with them before we start and always put him away wanting more.

Since the limp seems to have settled we’ve been playing with the hoses a lot more. I suppose I have Jen from Indian Creek Schutzhund club and Kulla Dogs to thank for teaching me how to play with my dog….took some work but he’s getting in the groove which is very very nice to see and will make life easier in the long run.
