The Elusive Water Hose

Last week Mokey discovered a new prey - the water spout. As I was filling up her pool, Mokey came over and, as she usually does, stuck herself in the middle of it. This resulted in the hose coming out of the pool and watering the grass. Mokey saw the water hitting the grass in a concentrated spot and decided to pounce! I picked up the hose and Mo followed the trail - thus came about a new game! Mokey will quite literally chase the water in circles and alternates between pouncing and catching it in her mouth. Once I turn it off, she'll run around for a short time looking for it, waiting for the game to start again.Training Update!
Last week we did another formal BAT training & practicing it on walks really seems to help Mo keep cool.
Also working on putting calming signals on cue - sniff, lifting paw, licking, turning away. So far 'lick' seems to be the hardest.
