I’ve been continuing my observations of Kody and I’ve noticed that he always sleeps very lightly. He can be in what appears to be a deep sleep, but he’ll wake if he hears anything suspicious. Usually I can’t even hear it. Also, I’ve tried numerous times to get pictures of him while he’s sleeping because [...]

Kody’s about two and a half years old now, although it feels like he’s been with me longer than that. But taking him on a walk is a lot easier now. He doesn’t bark at random stuff, and I’ve even trained him to be calm when other dogs bark, which is amazing. If he sees [...]

Kody had been doing so well. Every day we would take a little walk to a patch of grass where I would let the leash go and he could just be free to sniff whatever he wanted. I kept a close eye on him and had all sorts of plans in case there was any [...]
