on my precious little Deuce!! Today was training class. Now let's recap on previous training classes... "snarl, snarl, bark, bark, lunge, snarl, lunge, bark, growl, growl, growl"...and so on. Well, my managers came through and found the waver that I could sign saying that it is ok to have a "correction" collar on...aka his choke chain. HE WAS SO GOOD TODAY! He was a totally different dog. He was much more calmer, he seemed at ease...and more comfortable with his surroundings. Four! little kids came right up to the his side of the training ring and he was fine with them...he only barked at one passer byer and he was a little weird as it was... He was going up to any dogs...but he didn't act like a buffoon either. It was great! I even convinced the other owner that choke chains aren't so bad when properly used..HA! Now next time we are doing the same thing, but without the "calming agents". He was drugged today...but he was drugged last week and he acted up..I truly think it was the chain.
I was also fairly busy at work today. I did 4 dogs, which is more then I have been getting. Today was just generally a good day.
Joke of the day:
Q: What's the difference between a cat and a frog?
A: Well, a cat has nine lives, but a frog croaks every night!

I wish I could have used a choke chain on Roxy in her class. She would have been so much better!!
Keep it up Steph. You'll get that dog shaped up in no time.
