Louie went to a local park today to have his first lesson. Louie and I worked on getting him used to the e-collar, he responded very well to the e-collar! We also worked on our heel. He didn’t try to pull me as much by the end of our first lesson. We kept our training session short since I didn’t want to over whelm him on his first day. He did amazing and is adjusting well to his kennel, he hasn’t bark on whined and has no problem taking a nap in his new space. He ate majority of his dinner and is drinking plenty of water. Louie is such a sweet boy!
