Rufous has been making incredible progress with his sound work training! He’s picking up the foundational skills at lightning speed and clearly enjoys the challenge. One of his favourite parts? Getting to jump into action when the alert sounds go off — especially since it often means a tasty reward is on the way! In addition to focusing on sound alerts, Rufous has also been spending lots of time outdoors practicing his on- and off-leash manners, as well as sharpening his recall skills. He shows great enthusiasm and focus in everything he does!
