FEB 9 22
i am not sure i saw this... so i must watch more closely.... i had said in that news article i write, that our pups would be perfectly trained by the ides of march
but here we are feb 9th-- and all 8 are sitting perfectly awaiting a spoonful.. i have a photo...problem there is those pups are behaving better than my computer as this fool machine will not let me download anything--- however---- the specacular thing i may have seen... and need to check on... is pup.. in position "A" for the first handful swallows that and runs around to position "h" for another as she comes across.... now if that is true... that is a first.

and a perception i don't think i have seen before...
i have often thought one litter is better than another... but .. this litter.....i dunno....i hope we can deliver the proper education these pups deserve...sooooo... let me put out a new challange... by march 15 we will be able to go to the topsfield fairgrounds for our march about.. with the whole litter.. off leash under control.. now i will have to have the place to ourselves- which we usually do... but there are othres who "use" that huge parking lot to run dogs... there is one very aggressive doberman who scares me.. so when i would like to film our dogs on march 15 , it is going to depend on extenuating circumstances...
the next phase.... today. is to call the pups from one side of the room to the other... 2 people 2 spoons and excellent timing.... in that room... on camera.. then thru the mail call area--- and finally the topsfield fairgrounds parking lot !!! pup...pup...pup. before names are learned...
there isONE HUGE problem here... itis almost comical....except it does confuse pups. .....which makes me angry.. 2 people ... one litter.... statrt out the front door the person in front has teh can and spoon and is calling pup pup pup.. and most of the pups are going. in her direction-- but the last 2 head some other direction... so person 2 starts calling them pup pup pup trying to be helpful.. but not realizing she is calling the first group back in the door..
... you have no idea how often this kind of thing happens... \\
likewise you have no idea how many times person #2 will say "i never realized". RIGHT... THAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH ALOT OF TRAINING.. YOU I DON'T REALIZE THE ENTIRE SURROUNDING SITUATION.... 2 PEOPLE CALLING ONE DOG IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS IS ONLY ONE EXAMPLE...
