Who said you can’t teach an Old Dog New Tricks?
He did it! My 11 year old is trying his hand at some obedience. Pirate’s occupation has always been part time sled dog, part time brut and I wasn’t sure how he was going to take to being my student dog. Challenge accepted! It has taken awhile but my boy has mastered basic obedience, may targeting and EVEN HEELING!!! I am so incredibly proud of him. I figured this group would understand, why I am so excited and I just had to share( cue happy dance)Fantastic way to start the new year???? Any one else have a training success this year that just tickled them pink?

Kudos to you, @mtnwolfpup ! I can feel your joy over the cyber waves! It’s quite an accomplishment, and I bet Pirate has really been enjoying it, too.

@mtnwolfpup what a great accomplishment!!! There is nothing like the feeling of knowing how to communicate with your dog and making such a great team!

This is so awesome, @mtnwolfpup – congrats at unlocking Pirate’s puzzle solving genius!
They say that solving puzzles reduces Alzheimers symptoms/progression in humans… I bet that learning new things is as beneficial for old dogs. Keep up the curiosity and fun times!
