After picking up Kingston today, we headed over to Almansor Park to get some work in. We spent some time walking around the park and practicing his commands, and he did really well with his training and focus.
Afterward, we headed home and got Kingston settled in. He’s been really good so far! He's been calm, easygoing, and adjusting nicely. I’m happy to have him back!

Kingston really enjoyed the day without the rain! He was once again extremely good for me all day. We made trips to the park both in the morning and evening, where he did great, and in between outings he was happy to relax and lounge around at home. Overall, Kingston had a calm, well-balanced day and continues to be a pleasure to have around.

Kingston and I had a fun and relaxing day today! We stayed active while keeping things calm and balanced, which he handled really well. We enjoyed some nice walks around the neighborhood, giving him a chance to stretch his legs and get some fresh air. Inside, we worked on his Place command, and Kingston did a great job settling in and relaxing when asked.
Between sessions, he enjoyed some naps and playtime, making it a well-rounded and enjoyable day for him. Overall, it was a really good day for Kingston, and he did great from start to finish!

Kingston and I had a great time working on everything today, and he did an excellent job across the board. He was focused, well-mannered, and clearly showing off all the work he’s been putting in. His obedience didn’t go unnoticed either, he even picked up a few compliments from strangers, which is always a fun bonus!
We also worked on his Place command, and while he handled it well, I may need to bring a larger place cot next time! Kingston definitely exceeds the weight limit of the small one!
Overall, it was a really solid day for him. Kingston continues to be a joy to work with and consistently shows how reliable and well-trained he’s becoming.

Kingston and I headed to the mall today, and overall he did an excellent job! He was extremely well-behaved and polite for most of our outing, even with all the sights, sounds, and people around.
One highlight (and slight challenge) was a fountain with turtles—Kingston was not a fan and clearly preferred to give them plenty of personal space. Instead of avoiding it altogether, we spent some time hanging out near that fountain so he could work through his uncertainty and build confidence. He handled that nicely and stayed composed.
Aside from the turtles, Kingston had a great time, stayed relaxed, and showed off his good manners throughout the trip. Really proud of how well he did today!

Kingston and I spent some time out at the park today, and I thought it would be a fun opportunity to work on his long-distance recall! This exercise is especially helpful for him, since in the past he would sometimes come sprinting in at full speed and plow right through you!
Today, Kingston got to run as fast as he wanted—as long as he could put on the brakes in time and come in neatly next to me. This gives him a clear target to focus on other than my knees and helps reinforce control and awareness, even at high speed.
He had a lot of fun with this and did a really nice job overall. It was great to see him enjoying himself while still making good choices and responding well. Awesome work today, Kingston!

Kingston had a wonderful day enjoying some time outside at the park! We went on some nice walks, fit in some playtime, and he clearly loved being out and active. After getting a bit muddy from all the fun, Kingston finished the day with a bath in the evening and cleaned up well.
He was a pleasure to have today—happy, well-mannered, and great company all around!

Today was a more relaxing, low-key day spent around the house and in the neighborhood. Kingston was very sweet, gentle, and polite throughout the entire day, making him an absolute pleasure to have around. A calm and enjoyable day from start to finish for Kingston!
