Alfie is now doing really well with his whistle training
i braved it and took it out on their walk last week and called him back when he was really close and he came shooting back
. I did this a couple of times, and then blew it again when i saw he was coming back my way, and he came straight back
. I dont really want to risk calling him back when he is further away yet, but when is the right point to do it? I.e., when he's running away from me on a field or sniffing in the bushes? I still use his name at these times.
Meg is also becoming whistle trained
even though it isnt really focused on her. She hears the whistle and comes running back, bless her
i've had to start taking kibble out as well as sausage so she doesnt miss out
as sausage wont do her figure much good!
