Top working dogs can understand about 120 commands I’m told.

So how are the dogs coping. Very surprised by mine. He used to get walked in the mountains every day, but has been rather chilled at the moment.

With retrievers i think I can make them work really well with about 25 commands, so, I've never really tried teaching them more. But perhaps I'll see what can be done with Stella.

Mine are fine in the morning, sleep pretty much the whole day while I work, then at around 3PM they wake up and are hyperactive! I try and play some tug of war with them and wrestle with them, but I am tired before they are. When they get really worked up I just put them outside, but if I leave the door open they occasionally come smashing into the house like two wrecking balls sending couches, chairs, tables flying all around.

 

My garden is quite small, so I need to be quite disciplined with taking them to the park to let them run free... they are seriously missing it and that is probably the first thing I will do once lock down is lifted (after going for a ride of course). They are still 2 and 3 years old so I guess it is expected.

Looks like lying on the couch is a common thing :lol:

Greasy, you need a throw toy for those energy bombs.

Yup...ours are pretty chilled with the whole family here the whole time, 4-6pm the turbo chargers start to kick in for some garden play time though.

Enzo is doing okay.. he missis his walks and of course because we were at the coast before rushing back so really misses the beach.. but my son has done well to keep up all of his training..the problem we have had the last few days has been the weather..it has been raining almost non stop. We have a bouncing pup in the house, so my son has to get creative and keep him mentally stimulated when he can't go out in the rain.

Plent of throw toys, unfortunately nowhere to throw them haha

 

Those squeekers keep the doggos busy for hours on end. I don't think my neighbours are too happy about it though!

 

Is Baloo at least enjoying his new stretch of garden in the front?

Whoever designed squeaky toys is either deaf or doesn't have dogs
