Two-eyes is doing very well on his waiting at doors. Today, he needed a reminder about 70% of the time, and the rest of the time needed no reminders- he just did it all on his own! He was a turkey in the kennel though, and nearly escaped twice before settling down and behaving.
His kennel work is doing well too. We warmed up with a few ten second stays in the kennel, and he went right in for hotdogs. I had a goal for today of 30 seconds in the kennel at a time, because I didn't want to push him too far too fast. However, he was doing so well after 30 seconds that I tried for more. Every ten seconds I was throwing a piece of hot dog through one of the slots in the kennel. He stayed in the kennel for about 2 and a half minutes the first time!
I let him out, and he went right back in for another hotdog. Two eyes stayed there for another two minutes before he started stressing out again. All in all, it was a great training session, and Two eyes preformed better than I expected!
