I'm so pleased that Jack is doing so well, he obviously is having the time of his life, it's so rewarding to find something they really love isnt it
Thank you. I'm gobsmacked by him everytime I set foot on that field.

Brilliant stuff, way to go Jack, looks like he`s loving it
This is just what he needed to help get his inner confidence up in conjunction with the fab work you have been putting in with him day to day, well done you
And great to see a nice upright stance from you for the weaves
[ did you have to be threatened with a pole down the back of your fleece to keep upright like some of my lot get told will happen if they keep bending over just cos of their dogs being small
]
Patch, you wouldnt believe my little dog. When he's there and the other dogs arent interested in him, he couldnt care less.
He actually got very hyped up today by a football match ( that tell-tale thud drives him bonkers) on the next field and beggered off for a split second. He approached one of the collies got to within nose to nose distance and came straight back. No growl, grumbles or teeth. When I feel him tense up, he gets a quiet "leave it" and he looks straight at me for a bit of whatever is in my pocket. We all walked back to cars totally together, he had every chance to "his thing" but didnt.
No threats for the weave, that is clearly my natural ability coming through
Yeah right, Jacks maybe.

I love the one of him on the table looking up at you, he looks totally focused and you can see the smile from here.
Thanks you G. He is unbelievably focused.
BTW which smile? His or mine??? Mine is from ear to ear every time I think of how clever my boy is turning out to be.
