I experienced this with my small dog Archie. Everyday he surprised me with new things which he learned by himself, how much he was listening to me.

I think it is amazing to see any dog learn something new. It brings a sense of accomplishment for the dog and the parent.

Jaxson? well the jury’s still out on that one LOL

He comes up with odd little ideas in his tiny little brain. He has decided that “hold” is too simple so he likes to add a wave while holding something in his mouth or some other twist.
The other day, he saw this little dog (he has frustration-based reactivity) and decided of his own volition that he was getting too hyped up so he went into a person’s yard and jumped over a tiny ornamental fence so he couldn’t see the dog and calmed down.

That’s why I don’t watch/listen to ANY commercials any more.

The dog food commercials make me insane. I keep shouting at the screen–your dog would probably be better if you fed them good food their entire life. But anyway…

I wonder how much Zoe influences Phoenix as well. As good a trainer as you are, I bet Zoe is even better. 🙂

I always feel badly for dogs that don’t get much stimulation. But I feel equally bad for their humans. They don’t even know what fun they’re missing out on.

It’s true for humans too. 🙂
