The Catapult

Hi All,
OK, I have to admit it. Trainer #6 might be on to something.  She insisted that Baron responds well to consistency, particularly in training.  She is trying to help Baron (and our saintly dog owner - that would be me) gain control at the door.  Hard to believe, but our guests still dislike being greeted by a jumping 75 pound poodle, regardless of how happy he is to see them.  Perhaps they don't share his pleasure at being reunited?

Baron and I (especially "I") are working hard to remedy this little glitch.  The good news ?  He is improving (though far from perfect).  The bad news?  The Olympic committee is no longer interested in Baron's ability to catapult himself on an unsuspecting guest without the aid of a springboard. We were hoping for a new Olympic sport which would allow Baron to shine and would allow us to regain some of the cost $$$$$ of maintaining our regal family member.
All for now,
Botswain
