Monty and I have been to four classes so far. Wanna know how many dogs he's bitten? Five. They have all been a hundred times bigger than him - a Rottweiler, a chocolate lab, a border collie, a big honkin' mutt dog and a black lab. Monty is fearless. Or stupid.
However, he has been doing awesome in his classes. He learned to "leave it" in just a few seconds and can do a "sit stay" like crazy. He still growls and barks at every other dog in the place, but we have got it so he is sort of in a truce with a white poofy dog.
The other dogs in the house haven't learned a thing. I was hoping Monty would do what Ky used to when she got home from school and teach everything she learned to Lyn. Apparently, Maddy and Vicki aren't that interested.
You were hoping Monty'd teach Lyn? I definitely agree that she needs to learn the "leave it" move. I drill her, but it just doesn't work. Perhaps I need to keep treats in my pocket for her.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever seen The Dog Whisperer? He will teach you everything you need to know.
ReplyDeleteKy: Okay, I didn't think out that sentance like I should have.
ReplyDeleteRoger: I may have to hire him full time. Especially if Lyn is going to learn anything.
