One super important skill is being able to get Hunter's attention when he is distracted, and the look cue is one way to do that! I am starting to teach him this cue by putting a treat next to my face and rewarding when he looks towards me. He's starting to get the hang of it!

Hunter loves his new slow feeder bowl. This helps him eat his meals slowly as well as providing enrichment to tire him out!

Hunter has started getting used to the feel of a scratch board, which will be a good way to let him file down his nails without the stress of clipping them!
