TRAINING LEVEL 2



A momentous day in training. I was let off my lead in the big field. The instructors stood 50 yards apart, shouted my name, and I raced to get my reward. I was that excited, I did overshoot the first couple of times, probably by a further 20 yards. But I soon got the hang of it, and was doing regular 50 yard sprints to order.
My reward was 10 minutes off my lead, which gave me the freedom I have been craving for. I stuck with Uncle Arthur Gard most the time, but also stuck in a few frantic sprints. I came back each time when called. 
That's military discipline for you!
As you can see, I got a bit mucky. 
This afternoon I shall be experiencing ablutions for the first time. This will be interesting.

QUICK LEARNER




We seem to have found a good pupil here.
Less than 2 weeks in we have mastered "sit" "down",
half decent lead walking, and toilet training.
Misty even bashes the keys in the front door
to let you know she wants out.
She can't go in to the countryside yet.
The injections have to kick in, but she 
should be fine late next week.

PUP TRAINING


What we have here is a fast learner.
The "sit" and "down" was mastered
in minutes.
As was "Blanket" which is her outside
safe place.


She sleeps in her cage at night. Wailed the first night,
but Marie has been sleeping downstairs on the sofa,
which has settled her a bit more.


Bonding with Arthur was a bit slow, but here
we are on day 4 and things have improved.
