Jack, my work buddy

 Jack is now nearly 4 months and with Covid-19 issues, I'm working from home.  He spends his day right at my feet under my desk and I take him out that basement door to pee on a regular basis.  Here's a short video of him bringing me his little duck toy which he absolutely loves. 



Sometimes it's a long day and he get's bored.

12 1/2 weeks = 87 days

 Jack can wade thru the small stream at Jensen park to get to me on the other side. He's only done it in two sessions so he's still a bit hesitant. But he's getting it. His fetch is so much better. He drops the ball right at my feet instead of 6 feet in front of me.  

When I'd ask to bring his Dad over to play, Timber, he would go pick up the ball and then drop it about five away.  So I'm quite pleased I can get Jack to bring all the way to me.  I have him trained to drop it where I'm pointing, right at my feet.  I'll make a circular motion right at my feet indicating I want it in that zone.  If he drops it short, I'll say "Bring it", and make the circular motion.  I won't pick it up. I'll make him get it to me to earn the treat proper.

When I get home from work he goes berzerk. I like how he loves me!
