What a fun video! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. I didn't start trying to train Eddie until he was 11 months, so it's never too late. You're right to start slow. Try an obedience class next, and don't sweat it if the improvement is slow. You'll have your pup for 15-18 years. There's lots of time left to learn.
