This month, Oliver has been working hard on his alerts, and we have added a new alert – the alarm clock! He thinks being able to jump on the bed might make this alert the best one yet. Oliver continues to work really hard on his manners around other dogs, and off-leash recalls. He is such a smart boy and tries very hard to be correct. On his time off, Oliver continues to enjoy his weekends at the lake and playing with his friends in advanced training. We are looking forward to next month where we can fully indulge in all the wonderful things that summer brings!
