Nicely done!

That yellow looks like a stud. Fine job

Although I don't know this for certain, I would have to say that dog trainers must have a degree of patience rivalled only by daycare workers. I honestly don't know how you do it, day after day.

I'm not pro by any standards but training my dog taught me more patience than anything else so far. I think having kids one day might top it but that's about all I think would.

At least kids speak the same language (eventually). With a dog it's always a degree of mystery.

My kids will likely end up barking instead of speaking. I tend to have the same expectations of small children that my pup already gives me, as told by my wife.

I often find myself talking to the kids the same way I talk to The Dingo. It works, so I'm not complaining.

(sorry for the hijack, Josh)

Congrat Josh!

Heck my dogs listen better than my kids most the time People tend to get upset when you have an ecollar on your 4 year old son...

Pffft, if it works....

Congrats Josh. I kinda know the owner of the yellow. I put a truck cap or 2 on his trucks.
Where did that pup come from? Looks a lot like my buddies yellow from Valpo.

South Bend, In. Shad knows an ex professional fisherman that I fish with quite a bit. He worked out a sponsorship of some sort where I used to work to get his caps.

I've heard good things about your training from several people.
