#134 - Teddy the Yo-Yo


I was out playing games with Teddy again and he is really loving it. All educational games of course but fun and engaging for him nonetheless.

We did some short range Driving game, more of the Touch It game, and we did some Yo-Yo game as well, particularly through gates and he was fine with it. Gates aren't his issue. He was calm and responded well with being driven on a 12 foot lead but he needs to stop coming to me off his own bat. It's like he slowly steps closer and closer and I need to send him away. He also comes to me with the Yo-Yo game; he attempts to every time! Directly after he backs up he comes waltzing over to me and I try to get him to stop but nine times out of ten I'm unsuccessful, so there he is standing right in front of me like, "Aren't I a good boy."

He's the king of the Touch It game now and was great being lead and Yo-Yoed at a walk and run. He's also really taking things in, licking his lips and yawning. I do get the feeling that after we have played a game once he's over it and wants something new, but I want him to grasp each concept well so we cant rush it. He seems very happy with himself lately so I'm wrapped about that!

The photo below is of Mary Jane, MJ for short, who was born three days ago and Teddy was totally besotted. He's adjusted to the new additions being around and is back to his normal self, and he does like to go over to the fence and touch noses with a calf when the opportunity arises.
