Jumping. No Problem.
/Guess what? Rascal jumps! His inmate trainer is so proud of him. They set up several chairs with pads on them, side by side and facing each other. And with a little enticing liver treat, he jumped right up there! Now he will jump up there on his own with no problem. Rascal has this look like "that's all I have to do to get that yummy treat?" Easy peasy.
Rascal is doing very well with his commands. He needs to improve on "stay", "leave it" and "wait", but there's plenty of time. No worries. He's a smart boy.
Rascal has a rubber ball he likes to chase and chew on. His inmate trainer will bounce it off the wall and Rascal will run after it. He likes squeaky toys too, but not as much as the rubber ball.
When Rascal goes out on the big yard, he will take off with the other dogs chasing them, at first. Then he will just lope around for a while by himself. He also likes chasing after the jolly ball on the big yard. Give it a good kick and he's off!
Rascal loves treats and food. He's easy to please and is a very laid back Greyhound. Rascal's inmate trainer knows his forever family will enjoy his company as much as he has. Tune in next week . . .
