He has come a long way. Have been having my wife water him, let him out of kennel at times, and feed him some. He is much better towards her. Actaully acts happy to see her and hasn't stood his ground ready for combat when she approaches the kennel in […]
Some of these I don't think I posted. 1st video was his reaction to anything from rawhide, beef bones, squirrel, deer antlers if it still had bone attached etc. I addressed this before his other behavior issues, because it interferred with any training. I discovered it by accident when trying […]
Spent a day acclimating Lexi to tone on the collar. Although I hardly ever use treats since she was nervous over the sound, to get her comfortable with it I would tone her and give a treat. Did it repeatedly for 5 minutes, or so until she was relaxed and expectant […]

Darcy is a super energetic and spunky little girl. She is Orfeo's bestest fluffy friend. She loves to jump on him, chew on him, roll will him, run with him and get into mischief with him. I think we'll keep her 🙂
His name is Rocky. He is a Rich silver saddle sable. German Shepard. This dog was given up. The previous owner was going to have him Euthanized. My son brought him home and the bonding began. Very intelligent and started listening to me immediately. Like all dogs. I fell in […]
