Obedience/Service Skills Practice

Today we did more obedience exercises and service skill practice in the training barn. Leon opened a cabinet and pushed it closed, opened and closed the fridge, tugged off one sleeve of a jacket, tugged off a sock, retrieved a phone from the ground and from a table, retrieved 3 items (a plastic ice tray, a hairbrush and one was the metal lion –he still isn’t retrieving it from the ground, but he retrieved it from my hand very close to the ground –we’re still working on it.) He also pushed the automatic door buttons at the office. I am so proud of my boy!

Tomorrow, we are going to the Philadelphia Zoo for the day! This zoo is much bigger than the Houston Zoo (from what I’ve heard), so this should be interesting.
