Gauges neighbor training

[sheltieluver]

Hes doing amazing!!!! He basically ignores them now. Sometimes he gets on guard hackles and runs to the fence but he stops about 10 feet from the fence because I've been working on him not going to the fence. When I say leave it come he will now come running right to me and sit and then I redirect him with his ball and he then forgets about the barking dogs. Its a little tougher with Tango because Tango gets aggressive. I think they must have gotten him an electric collar or something because he hasn't been as bad. He will still jump at the fence on occasion and run the fence but he lets out one bark and that it.

Today I thought I would put Gauges recall to the test he was busy hunting something prob a field mouse in the wood pile. he was so focused on it. I said Gauge leave it come and he actually left it and came running. Big jackpot reward. For him to leave something hes hunting is amazing progress.

Just bragging.

Nothing wrong with bragging at all. I wish Rio was there. Unfortunately I didnt train recall as much as i should've in his first year. we are doing it every day now and he is getting there. Congrats though.
