“More Relaxed, Confident, and Trusting” – Marjorie Young & Deus

January 8, 2020 by

Hello Sharon,

Thank you so much for reaching out.

Deus continues to be Deus, but he also continues to make lot s of progress. He loves the relaxation protocol and that has become part of our everyday life. He sits around calmly while I cook and clean and he waits patiently while I do things in the kitchen and other parts of the house. He waits quietly and enjoys getting his treats.

He is doing a great job with fetching and dropping balls and other items.

He is now walking off leash when we go for walks and is doing an excellent job with the Here Here recall. It is amazing to see him running back when I say Here Here…He has been doing an excellent job with this except for yesterday when he went chasing a coyote. I was grateful that he came back was not hurt and that things ended well.

There is room for improvement for keeping him calm when strangers come. He is making progress in that area as well.

I actually was away for 4 days during the holiday and I had a new dog sitter come and stay and Deus did really well. He was really good with her on the walks and everything went well!!!!

So, he is growing and maturing and so am I. I am way more relaxed and we are trusting each other daily. I am more confident about everything and that is directly related to my work with you. Everything that you taught me comes into play regularly as I work and train Deus daily. I now leave him in the house while I am away…..

We still have a ways to go and so much to learn, but we are well on our way.I hope things are going well for you and your work.

Best,

Marjorie
