More on Brother

Brother's training continued today after a week off.  First being out of town then the weather.  But we are back on track now. 

J reviewed the basics with no problem.  Brother is a very fast learner and is retaining things from one lesson to the next.  

 He really enjoys the resting part.

Sometimes it is just too tempting to go ahead and get on.

Of course I'm not that reckless.  It involved working up on the fence first to get him use to the handler being higher than him.  We had already done this for a couple of days last week.  

Then he can get the idea that being next to the fence and standing still is preferable to running back and forth.

You can't tell from the pictures, but our far leg is still standing on the fence with most of the weight.

And then it is just a matter of letting him relax while he gets rubbed everywhere.  We've got some big expectations with him  following behind Otoelene but, so far so good.
