A thread for all those small moments of brilliance that just make you want to gush somewhere.
My moment: Other dogs are currently our kryptonite. He sees them and just kinda ends up like this:
So the neighbors whose fence line runs the driveway recently adopted a dog aggressive bully mix who explodes everytime he's out and we're in the driveway. If my guys are offleash at the time, this results in fence fighting. ARG.
Anyway, today we were walking back into the house and passing through the driveway offleash and said dog started barking..... but mine RECALLED! I was so excited I literally dropped everything to run in the house and JACKPOT! I didn't have treats on me so getting into the house required another recall, which he did! Then after we went outside with more treats and worked the far end of the driveway while the other dog was barking. Full attention. Then we heeled down the driveway and back. Mostly full attention. I didn't want to push it anymore than that, as I was just so estatic! He's just so awesome it hurts.
