Lacey — The Frisbee Dog!
Guess what we got in the mail today! A FRISBEE!! One of those soft ones with the more rigid edge but it’s soft in her mouth. Canvas center.
Of course, she has no idea what to do with it. I’m introducing it to her slowly.
She loves to jump — and she jumps really high. I’m training her to “jump” and take it out of my hand. Of course, she has to have good manners first. As in “Lacey, sit.” (she sits) Then “Lacey, jump!” (she jumps up and takes it out of my hand).
Next it’ll be that I let go of it before she takes it so she gets used to taking it out of the air rather than my hand.
Then it’ll be throwing very short distances (with “Lacey, catch” –hoping she catches it, or at least attempts), then lengthening the distances. Pretty soon, we’ll be going to the beach!! And she’ll be one of those cool frisbee dogs (like what’s in the picture in the header of the blog).
We also got a galileo bone from Nylabone. It’s a hit and indestructible. Our toy box continues to grow (except the frisbee lives on my desk because I don’t want her chewing it up).
That’s about the scoop these days.
I love this dog.
