  • Welcome back!

    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

More Rhaegar!

The class I mentioned in the other post? Nothing special, just the only (literally ONLY) training class we have available in our area (still almost an hour away). I can't wait to move somewhere else! It's just a very basic class that Rhaegar and I have already been through twice (once at 5 months and once at 8 months) because once you pay the first time, you can come back for refreshers as often as you want without paying again. Rheagar obviously knows all of those commands perfectly by now, but I decided to go back again when Rhaegar had a few reactive episodes towards other dogs. It's held in a really huge field with lots of space, so I figured it might be good place to ask him to do super easy commands and feed him tons of yummy stuff around other on leash, in control dogs in a large open space. We've only had the first class so far. The trainer is meh, at best. She came by, and I said that Rhaegar was SUPER stressed, which he was. She said that he looked fine to her.......Anyway, going to try to get even more distance from the other dogs in the next class and step up the value of our treats.

That's my favorite too! It's so cute! He's such a good sport - doing all the silly things that I ask him to do, lol.

Like this! Lol, he actually didn't even blink an eye when I got out that teeny tiny white box. [video=youtube;UPQYF_37Kd0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPQYF_37Kd0&edit=vd[/video]
