Just any video of you two with Honey is fine with me!

That’s what Honey’s body language told us. I’m been very impressed at how she has adapted over time.

You dogs sure are impressive.

Interesting point. Honey’s core strength could certainly be a factor in teaching her to do some climbing on the sail boat.

I do regular training with Honey or boring life skills–recall, stay, leave it. But I’m slow to realize how helpful trick training can be. I’ll definitely look to y’all for inspiration.

Honey gets tired out too. I think it’s easy to forget how tiring mental work can be–for humans and dogs.

Consistency is not my strong point either. I stop and start.

Seeing how much more confident Honey has become when training makes me regret not working with her more steadily.

You realize that I’m determined to convince you that this is a good idea, right Jan? 🙂

BTW, you should know that most cruising sailors spend 90% of their time at anchor. And most of that time drinking.

I’m worried we won’t fit in because we like sailing too much and don’t drink enough. 🙂

Those might not be terribly interesting videos. She tends to do the same thing on a boat she does at home–cuddling up to us and shedding.

But I suspect she’ll dig up some awesome finds on the beach.

Actually, seeing it on video makes me realize how much I rely on luring Honey with a treat to do something. That’s kinda sloppy.

The video is old. Hopefully I’m better today. 🙂
