Daisy and Zeke went to visit their grandparents in Indy, so Mom could go to the Indy 500 over last weekend. Daisy also got her teeth cleaned by her former vet while we were in town. Mom got them treats to celebrate the race and Daisy’s bravery at the vet’s office. Three Dog Bakery makes [...]

Zekester finishes agility 1

Zeke spent the evening in the last session of agility 1 in his own class. We did the same course as Monday, and he did very well again. He’s consistently offering downs on his mat during class, which is very exciting! We have a private lesson next week during the break, and then we’ll have [...]

Agility 1 Continued…

Zeke made up a missed agility class last night, and he did very well, especially considering it involved new people and dogs–and a cute one-year-old, JRT named Roxie. I think Roxie and Zeke may have been crushing on each other a bit. Jacks seem to always recognize their own. We worked on the jump chute, [...]
Zeke’s Breakthrough!

Out of nowhere during agility class on Wednesday, Zeke offered a down on a mat during a calming exercise. He’s never offered a down before, especially not in a distracting environment like agility class! Obviously, he got a huge payoff for the down, so now every time he wants something he lays down… If he [...]

Since we only eat our meals from Kongs and other food toys, mom went to the store to get us some new and challenging toys to try! Our new food toy is amazing. It’s from the Busy Buddy line. It’s a hard plastic jar (similar to Nalgene material) with a Kong-like rope in it that’s [...]
Zeke Does Agility Again

Zeke has another session of Agility I tonight. We worked primarily on jumping techniques. We spaced out three and then four jumps close together, then farther apart to force the dog to adjust his stride between jumps. Zeke was great at it. We’re still working on calming behavior, and I was surprised how well Zeke [...]
