Jack loves hiking and kayaking

 We've done a lot of hiking, duck stalking at Jensen, and kayaking.  He is very good about fetching and dropping his ball.  He is good about not having any accidents, and we've packed the crate up since I now work all the time from home.  I'm able to be with him all the time.  If I have to leave I'll put him in the back yard.


I bought a fake pheasant along with some scent.  I rub the scent on the bird and then put Jack in the shed so he can't see. I'll go hide it somewhere in the yard. Even in places that are hidden pretty well. I'll rip the door open and yell "Find it!" He goes nuts trying to sniff out that bird. I know he can sniff it because he'll pass by it and immediately turn back and sniff until he narrows it down.  He is amazing!

Make yourself at home buddy.

Jack's first experience with the Great Salt Lake.

No need for a doggy life jacked in the GSL.  
He fell in once and floated like a cork. He can't just
sit down. He watches me swim like a hawk.

"Find it".
His latest trick is to sniff for birds.

So dang cute!

Who needs squeeky toys when you are happy with 
a stick?
