We have this little faucet in the backyard with a hole under it. He was dipping his big head and his ball into the water




He reminds me of a Wolf here.

There's handsome Travis! It looks like you're having fun and smart boy for learning your new trick.

Gee, you got some really charming close up face shots here. And Travis sure is having fun, lolling tongue, soaking drippy ball and all.

HOW did you teach that trick??!! Lacey has to learn it for RallyO and we are NOT making progress . . . .

Of course, after 7 weeks of Basic Manners, 7 weeks of Beyond the Basics, 4 weeks of Agility and 3 weeks of Rally, she has only 'mastered' the SIT. She is not sure about LIE DOWN and forget anything else! Recall works when she wants, which is about the 5th time with me wagging the 'treat' all over the place. I guess at age 5, she figures she survived this long without knowing commands, why start now?

HOW did you teach that trick??!!

I put Travis in a sit at my side. Clipped a short lead on his collar. I then lured him around me and back into position. Clicked the clicker when he cooperated and applied the command 'around'
After a few go's with the lead I simply used a treat to lure him. After a few times with the treat a simple hand signal was enough to get him to do it. :]

Travis is adorable. He sure looked like he had tons of fun playing with the Kong. And the trick was great!
