Baxter is a loving, spring loaded Australian Shepherd boy with a lot to say who here for a week of “finishing school”. His owners have already put a lot of time and effort in to his on-leash obedience and now they are ready for me to finish off his remote collar training.
Bax is a high energy, driven fellow who can get into trouble if left to find his own activities. But he is also a joy to teach and work with. His ability to focus keeps growing and he enjoys being challenged more than anything.
Today we mostly did review but I made it hard on him. Very fast change ups to his commands and varying speeds. I was unable to get more than 2 mistakes out of him. Tomorrow I am going to introduce him to a long line recall and start moving him towards off leash reliability.
Dana is definitely enjoying having a boarder who can keep up with her big dog games.
