Several weeks (?months) ago I asked for help getting my boy to do his dumb bell....Well today he actually WENT and got it...I was out playing with my wee dog (he LOVES the DB)...then I got out the sausages and thought I'd give the big man a try...he didn't go for it right away but I asked him to pick it up off the grass and HE DID!...so I asked him to heel and dropped it at my feet and asked him to pick it up...well he lay down then picked it up...so I ran backwards and he carried it to me and did the present and waited till I took it...Gave him a big wad of sausage and he must have thought that was super because he started dancing around with a big grin on his face..:-)
I did a few more tosses a little further out and he went for those too...still thinking he had to lie down to pick it up....but we
will soon work that one out..lol He is at least willing to go away from me to lift it and bring it back to me....and this has taken over a year...:-)
Well pleased...and to top it all off after we did a little off lead heel work and he was perfect....must have been in the "ZONE" today...:-)
