Kilo doesn’t get to be off leash, his recall isn’t strong enough that I’d trust he’d come back.

Though I have to admit she’s not the best candidate for hide & seek out in publis; she gets a little too anxious when one of us gets out of her sight & she’ll start letting out a high pitch whining noise that gets the attention of everyone around us. It’s a little bit awkward to say the least.

She is fine playing hide & seek at home though, I think we just need to continue building up her confidence out in public before we try that again.

Also, do you have any suggestions with working with two dogs. We find that Harlee has trouble focusing when she is not around Luna, but when Luna is with her she usually interrupts a good training moment,
Thanks Sarah

We play hide and seek with the poodles, but I don’t do it spontaneously when they least expect it. I’ll have to try that!

We don’t play that game really anymore! I think it’s good for dogs who are not as strongly velcro. Thanks for joining the hop!

I always forget and start screaming to the top of my lungs. Gotta remember to try this.
