Apr. 5th, 2005 12:36 amAfter two weeks break the Sweetness returned to school yesterday. It was Outdoor Recall exercise. Kato had to "Stay" with the trainer (and 19 other dogs/owners) whilst hippy ran away around a corner and then called her. Kato, suddenly free in a wide open space of dogs, some to play with, maybe settle some scores from Playtime arguments, some boy dogs to flirt with....would she, wouldn't she?.........gulp......everyone held their breath......but the Clever Mensa Sweetness was recalled with jubilant perfection.
Next week the class have to take a favourite toy for Follow Me exercise - hmmm, Katos favourite toys are currently a 2 inch square piece of chewed cardboard or Abe.........
In other news - Lindsay has been wearing her magnetic collar for over two weeks, and loath as we cynics are to admit it, there appears to be some improvement in the creaky old dudess. Lindsay has been doing four cantering laps of the garden and getting upstairs with medium ease, even coming in to land with more of a drunken wobble rather than a splatter. The only way to prove or disprove would be to take the collar off, which seems cruel. So it stays on.
