We had flyball practice for the first time in a few weeks. I have been playing with zeke in the yard with his tug a lot. Throw the ball, he gets it and gets to tug.
As some know, he doesn't always listen to me at practice. And he definetly has never been interested in playing tug there.
Anyway, sundays practice there weren't a lot of dogs, so Zeke only got to run one on one with a Doberman, Rook. Rook is a lot slower than Zeke (Zeke usually only chases if the dog is AHEAD of him) however, he ran over to Rook once.
BUT, he played with his tug! I tried it, he didn't do it os I threw it aside like I usually do when he won't play with it. One of the members came over and got him to play with it. Someone says he seems to want to play "rough" or he loses interest. So I was tuging and pulling as hard as I could (I'm telling you, it's a good work out - I was exhasted LOL) I even was growling at him (he seems to only wanna pull if I do that) someone was laughing at me for doing it
Maybe he's slowly getting the hang of it...they tell me he's really fast too, I wish he'd learn he can't chase! He knows the game really good and I've only seen him drop the ball once when he got distracted.
Classes start soon..I'm thinking of taking my sisters dog sometime. But she is too young right now. So I'll probably help out with the newcomers. I'm looking forward to seeing the next heap of dogs
pointless again
