countrycowgirl: thank you very much!

Anna Lisa: First of all thank you very much for taking your time to post about Rex difficulties. BTW how is Tesoro? Thousand kisses for him and his brothers!

Rex is a LORD, he knows com sit (which times he thinks is laydown), wait (but with a little bit of hurry), and dead (he can stay dead very long).

He is much better with the leash now, today, midmorning, he walked with a squeack toy that he loves in his mouth, and when he began to growl to others dog i said "quiet" "amigo" (amigo is the word i use to introduce visitors, when he sniffs at heir hands i say f.ex. "John amigo" and is ok with him), he didn't drop his toy to bark, an followed me the direction i took without pulling the leash. He seemed very happy. That happened 3 times midday.

Rex ist a sweet baby indoors! He is gentle, quiet, loves to be groomed, loves our early morning walkings from 6 to 8 a.m. (i am an early bird myself); he never tried to sit on the couch or at my bed, never growled/barked to me. He ist enjoying learning with the toys. During our walkings he catches huge stocks for me, and carries it very proud with his mouth and wants to take them home!
