Val would have shot me yesterday....... groomed Willow and trimmed her feet.
Then took her for a walk......... halfway down the road realised I had only trimmed three feet, really must go to specsavers lol

We met up with my friend and Ami today, told Willow Joan is coming and she started to run towards her and said hello to Ami all waggy tailed.
Ami took Willow's ball and tried to play with it, it's too big for her mouth and she was pouncing on it like a cat.
Recall is getting pretty good but it something smells real good she will sometimes ignore the cue. As we don't know what cues were used or what she has been taught we had to improvise. She has got the hang of come with the rattle of a treat pot, comes like a rocket every time, not treats every time......some times treat some times fuss sometimes a game
After the walk went back for coffee and the pair of them fell asleep back to back just like Tam and Willow always did.


Handle every stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it,
Just pee on it and walk away

do it using the rattle pot 3 or 4 times ...no voice until praising

then rattle pot just after saying the recall cue that you want....eventually you will be able to stop using the rattle pot  :)
