She runs for the ball as if she was going out for a football pass, and when she can't find it, she does the greatest job tracking it. I wonder if she learned from the breeder, her Yorkie siblings, or her Border Collie sibling before she came to us on Mother's Day at the age of three or if it's something she innately learned. It always warms my heart when I read such nice things about my little girl. |
Awh I can answer that question for you! Of course she learnt from the breeder and her pack. Just look at the videos when Ilona and I went to the cottage this summer... Ilona always plays with her puppies and then her adult dogs always every day for several hours a day. But Katie has huge toy drive, as you know each dog is different, but Katie is like Razzle in her toy drive. I did tell you she was a female Razzle
The only thing is Ilona "always" uses a ball, and I train with different toys, shapes etc, so my dogs will look at anything I throw as a Prime play toy.
Katie is gorgeous and I too am so happy to hear the love and lilt in your voice when you speak of her. She is where she belongs, with two loving humans who not only adore her, but give her lots of good times with exercises, walking, and playing.
