Satchel is home!!!

We spent three 1/2 hours there doing the transfer. She had to train us on how he was trained. Satchel did so good up there. We put him into a down/stay and he stayed right there, never moved, she let in other dogs and they played all around him and he never moved, we left the area and hid behind a bush,he never moved. He did so very well with all the commands. We were very impressed. When we first got there we were told to ignore him, we did and that was very hard, he finally came over to us and smelled us and then rubbed and rolled allover us, back and forth from one to another. He was so happy to see us. We were so afraid he wouldn't recognize us but that was not the case. We finally got done wiht the transition and came home. Once back in the back yard it is like he has completely forgotten everything he learned and is back to his old tricks. The thing is that we now have to reinforce everything he learned here. So now that we know what to do we have to start doing that here. He has a really good foundation to grow on and now it is our turn to be the trainers. He has grown and it is so good to have him home!!!
