Zeus Board and Train day 4

4/16/2015

0 Comments

 
Today was a good day for Zeus. It started out actually not that great. He had a very difficult workout and he was doing a lot of manipulation trying to get out of work. He mostly tries to use his sheer size. He will flop over or try to just trot away to avoid working. I ended up putting him back on the long leash for the morning and also using the Continuous mode on his collar to get him back into shape. The Continuous mode is different from the Nick mode in that for as long as you hold the button down he will feel stimulation, unlike the Nick which just delivers a quick shock. Tapping the continuous button (not holding it down for more than a second) seemed to be a different enough sensation to get him to shape up a little and it kept him from trying to bolt anymore.
I was expecting another difficult workout this afternoon but he actually gave me a perfect training session. I think I may have had to buzz him once with the pager but other than that he was an absolute prince. I was very pleased with him. Of course, now that he has done it perfectly I know we can expect him to do it perfectly and so we will have high expectations of him from now on. He is a good boy and he knows what we want from him, and he showed me today that he can rise to my standards. The trick now is to keep him up. I plan to do Placemat tomorrow and I am hoping to get him into town for a field trip. If I don't get him in tomorrow it will have to wait until Sunday and that is cutting it a little close to troubleshoot anything that comes up down town. But today was a definite win. Go, Zeus, Go!
