Bash’s new favourite game: Blanket Monster…
Now, the whippets love this game…unfortunately I may have been wrong to introduce it to a borderjack. The border half is now getting all obsessive about the blanket…and the jack half is obsessed with pouncing with all his might at potential little mice. Now, Max the whippet who normally sleeps under these covers might have some hollering to do…just to have a decent nap…sorry, Max.



tricks

Some of the tricks we plan on teaching him are backing up and walking sideways. We will be working on those over the next few weeks. We are continuing to work his contacts, some close work and go work. We will be working more close work with up to 5 obstacles the next few weeks. He has worked on up to 9 obstacles on a “go” sequence…with his ears pinned back at full throttle…it’s priceless.
Still many things so many things to work on…it’s way too much fun…
