Vid of the boys doing a little intro boundary work



Far from a finished product, just so you know. Pow needs to not be picking up the brushpile in the boundary ( it is actually outside of it - where Brick goes on that side is correct) and Brick needs to patrol more on his own. Pow watches and basically works on his own, I don't have to say much. Brick does better right now watching Pow - really helps him. Working on his own, he remembers, then forgets, then remembers....he'll get it eventually. I expect it will take Brick longer to learn it, since he is just less boundary sensitive than Pow, but then again, didn't take Pow all that long. Regardless, they will never do it quite like the shepherds and the other german tending breeds, but they will do it well enough for it to be a functional skill that I DO use and well enough to do C course and possibly HGH. Wouldn't that be a hoot.
