Training Brand: Something Different

IMG 4974Today was a little different. Jean took Brand to her room and he hung out while she was on Zoom with her friends. Good opportunity to have someone else handle him and meet his needs. He did very well. Later in the evening Jean did a bit of training with him so we could see how well he could sit, down, touch, and look for someone different. He far exceeded expectations including massive distractions from Belle the big fluffy English Shepherd. 

Belle & Jade want to participate too. But, being spoiled girls they think it requires an immense amount of sneezing and speaking.  Belle is working on her stays. She really doesn’t grasp the concept yet. And, yes, She is to be 9 years old in just a few weeks.

Mico and I went to the park again. I brought treats and the clicker to see if I can continue to get him to take treats and do a few simple things. Still no sit really; but, when he does inadvertently sit I am rewarding it.

We worked on Look. I think he’s kinda getting it. He’s so happy on our walks. He adores playing with Brand. Maybe we can address his issues with Jean this weekend. I’d so love for him to be a full member of the family.
