Yay Ursa!
« on: March 14, 2009, 08:56:20 am »
We're starting our new class next week (were supposed to start last week but the trainer was sick).  The trainer sent us some homework to practice on since Ursa and I are actually beginning with class #2.

One of the things to work on is having your dog stand with its front feet on a stepstool and then move the back feet only.  I wasn't too hopeful about this one because Ursa's heard "four on the floor" every day of her life!  No Pyr pawing allowed here!

Well, it took 5 days AND some bacon but Ursa finally stood up straight with her feet on the stool!  I'm doing the happy dance!!!   ;D

She won't move her back feet yet but that's okay.  She's slowly training me to enjoy the journey to a new skill as much as the end result.   :)
