Rudy Board and Train day 6

A weekend of playing and getting muddy seems to be what the veterinarian ordered for Rudy. Today he had his first off-leash workout at the farm and he did exceptionally well. Better than I expected. He stuck around nicely, respected boundaries like the tree line and horse fence, came when called and even Heeled around the garden. He didn't want to lay down but I think that was because he was cold and being a baby. I still made him do it but I let him up right away.
I am also pleased to report that while he is still a puppy and can get underfoot and excitable in the house he is getting easier and easier to calm down the longer we work together. He is doing great and I was proud of him today. Tomorrow I plan to work him off-leash some more and see how far we can get. He is a good boy!
