I missed you coming back from your travels and you have a new dog now? How old is she? I remember doing this training with my boy and it's all good in theory but every dog breed is different. Border collies are famously known as the most trainable breed in the world. I had the most untrainable breed, known to obey when they'd want to. So with some food and without distractions all would go well. But because of the breed he was always a goofball when out and about. I wonder if you could guess what dog I had. He was a good guard dog, only barked to alert me of danger, like said obeyed commands 70% of the time when perfectly trained. Average life expectancy 13 years. Originally bred to hunt very large prey. Double layer of fur to keep him warm. Very stubborn and strong willed but he had a heart of gold and was never a dull day with him. I don't know if you've ever wondered if dogs love their owners? I have thought about it. Like obviously dogs are always very loving, that is why they are such a good pet, but is it because they are pack animals and genetically programmed to be naturally affectionate to their pack or do they genuinely love their owner because they choose to? It's just something I've wondered about in the past and I'm not sure I could ever get a border collie for that reason. I could never be sure he'd be truly loyal. Lets say a border collie was kidnapped and loved just as much by his new owner. Would he remain loyal or would be quickly adapt to his new environment and be a dog showing affection all over again no matter who to..? I know it's such a superficial thing really but I've seen owners be rather abusive at times and still the breed they had was just naturally obedient and would always rather be with them than not despite not getting any love in return. It's just something that I find interesting about dogs. Have a nice christmas.
Really loving this series 😁
