I have been working with her halting on the lunge line. Her idea of a halt is come to me for a treat. My idea of a halt is stopping wherever she is. I have been making her back away from me. Her solution to this is smile at me.
I took her for a short pony around the park. She was starting to get tired at the end and her solution was to drag on the lead rope and smile.
If she is standing and gets bored she will start smiling. I have this fear that is growing deeper and deeper that I am going to be doing a free walk and she is going to poke her nose out, twist the neck and smile for judge.
Ahahah! That would be the cutest (albeit frustrating!) thing ever if she did it in a test.
ReplyDeleteI am sure it will be the least of our problems 😂
Delete😂😂😂 I can see it now!
ReplyDeleteI just hope it is on video or pictures
DeleteHAHA omg teach her another trick to offer. runkle did this, except he really only did it when he thought i had food and wanted it.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anything I want her to offer all the time so I don't dare 🙈
Deletehahahahaha!!! oh miss Karma.
ReplyDeleteMiss Karma is earning her nickname of Twerp
DeleteShe's so cute! I mean, I get that it's frustrating... but she's smiling at you! Pammon does that some too, but not as often.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty darn cute, but my recommendation is don't encourage Pammon 😂
DeleteA enter trot, X halt, salute, CHEESE!
ReplyDelete100% accurate
DeleteSteele used to do that too. As he grew it went away.
