Day #6 7/23/2010

Much of today was a repeat of yesterday, and he remembered everything wonderfully. He is retaining everything smoothly and easily.

Since he retained his training from yesterday, I worked on transferring the training to the off side. I lead him on the opposite side and for a moment he was hesitant, trying to switch sides to "correct" it, but quickly fell into the routine knowing how I wanted him to behave.

He did exceptionally well.

I also was able to groom him all over (including over the swelling on his rear offside cannon bone.) He allowed me to groom his full mane, tail, and brush his whole body well. He got a little antsy over the combing out of his tail, but it was very twisted and tangled. When it got all done his tail was a full 2-3 inches longer. I have some better shots of him today, though I ran out of memory on the camera before I could take some "after" pictures. These were taken before grooming.






Until next time -
Happy Tails!
