its pretty cool. i really enjoy the walks, one because I know my GSD is lovin it and two the scenery is always changing, always bird life around, plenty of ducks, plenty of rabbits and depending on the time of day there's always a family of roo's kicking about. if we go towards sun down there's hundreds of roo's in our estate, dont see many in the middle of the day though

didnt have a training session this weekend but spent allot of time with Simba.

got a question. if im patting him, and he tries to put my hand in his mouth all the time, does it mean anything in particular? he's not trying to bit me i know that but still strange

I think it's just a puppy thing, but best to stop it. Good that Simba has a soft mouth but this is a good opportunity to teach that any contact with teeth is unacceptable with a human.

Sounds like your hard work is paying off. Well done.

I would pretend it's sore, squeal and anything positive that might e happening at the time stops for a minute.

It sounds like the bite inhibition is good, you just need to stop the mouthing now.
