a few reason why I LOVE this dog

[ashleycat]

Charlie learned a new trick. And FAST at that. I taught him the nose touch.

I've gotten on a better sleep schedule.

I take out my frustrations with playing tug of war with him.

I slowly feel my depression going away.

He is soo much better behaved than when I first brought him home.

There are more reasons, but those are just a few!

Oh, I'm sooo glad to hear that! :D I love the Touch command because you can morph it into so many different activities and new tricks. For example, you can morph a simple Touch into a Rollover with a few adjustments. I don't really remember each step, but you basically place your hand on the floor near his paws and slowly guide his head into a complete Rollover. The lady who demonstrated this technique used a long stick with a red ball attached instead of her hand. Congratulations! This is such a big step up!!!
