I'm still waiting and Teal will be 5 on the 3rd of July. only joking. This last year she has settled and will doze a lot of the day away if nothing is happening, 7pm until 8pm we still get the old Teal, cushion humping, the odd zoomies, balls thrown, every thing not up high is retrieved, and tuggy is also presented for a game of tug. I know why we get this, as a pup this would be the time I played with her after work and she has never forgot, I hope she never forgets as I still like to see the old or should I say young Teal popping out if even for an hour or so.
I have also noticed that I rarely use the whistle on our walks she is so easy to walk (off lead) and hunt now but she also occasionally will take advantage of my relaxed attitude but the whistle does still work if required.
After our evening walk / hunt she will run to the open space at the warren this is training time I get to give her commands which she will happily follow as long as there are retrieves to be done.
Teal is still qwerky and contrary but generally a very easy dog to live with
