Hey Ruger1 how about an up-date on Prince??? - Page 1

I was just wondering how things are going with the new dog (Prince) LOL??? How is the training going?  I hope all is well and that he will continue to be the dog we always knew was there.

         Kathy, 

                  How nice of you to ask,, Prince has been a different dog to tell the truth. He is more humble and much more willing to please. He has been a real gentleman around the house too. I have been taking him out into Petsmart with perfect behavior. He walks at a heel at my side and does not show any signs of aggression towards strangers walking around us. He is very attentive to me and I do not even need treats to have his attention. Honestly until today, he has not even seen a treat. It amazes me daily how much was accomplished in so short a time. My children are doing heeling patterns with him and he does a great job. My husband is enjoying working with him too.

    However,   I do respect the fact that he has a very serious side as well. I realize how important it is to keep this dog in check. I have made a lot of mistakes with this guy, he is a lot of dog for me I admit., but I feel confident that I have the tools and the support to work through it...........

I am so  happy for you and prince and your whole family! Your story is one that keeps the fire kindled in my heart about training! I am still awe struck when I see or hear about a sucess story such as yours! those german shepherd dogs are  so amazing I find it hard to believe they are real! OMG there is nothing like them on the face of the earth! It seems that the more the dog learns and acomplishes it causes a deeper desire in the owner or handler to  learn and train more becoming more of a partner with the dog! Prince will be so good for your children and help them learn and grow in so many ways! God I wish I was young again so I could devote my life to training and learning about such a marvelous animal! deanna I and others are so happy for you  and your prince and company! Kep up the good work! Prince and yours are worth every  bit of it!

Super Deanna.  You have done what so many others should, and yet don't.  Prince is a lucky dog.
