Henry searching for burnt remains. 11 months old.
Our little guy continues to learn and grow. Every challenge, when presented correctly, is creating the partner I need him to be.
Enjoy. ♥️
A HUGE thank you to Honey Creek Fire Department for their wonderful hospitality.

A little Henry update. Sorry I haven't posted for a while, I completely missed sharing this.
Henry is all adolescent right now but with an amazing work ethic. Some days he is serious, other days he's a teenager. 😬🤦🏻♀️😂
My job is to make sure searching remains his favorite game while teaching him the new skills he'll need. I have to learn to change his behavior without squashing his spirit.
Too much pressure it's no longer fun.
No pressure and he doesn't advance.
Words to live by...
No matter who you're trying to coach (employee, child, student, K9 partner) if you squash a spirit it no longer matters what you were trying to change. 😉
Enjoy.

🤦🏻♀️😂A little Henry update.. Sorry it's been awhile. Not a lot of formal training going on these days. This is when I take a little break from advancing with odor and let him experience the world and mature a bit.
No pressure, just fun. Always. ❤️
Henry 4½ months old. Sweet solid alert!
