When it all pays off!!!!

I haven't written on this blog for ten days, I am such a disgrace and apologise to those following!

I wanted to share a moment of wonder with you all that I managed to capture on video. I took Ben for a walk around a local golf course, not where people play golf but there are hedges around the large course which makes a lovely walk, a bit of a hill fest for my liking but it does me good!

Anyway it was early and it was raining so I knew it would be quiet. I took Ben's favourite fetch toy, the KONG flyer Frisbee, which is basically a floppy Frisbee made of rubber. We are playing fetch and another dog comes bounding over, turns out its a female Labradoodle I find out when I talk to the owner. I reassure Ben its okay and they sniff each other and the Labradoodle gets bored and goes back to her owner. Me and Ben carry on and come across this dog again, the owner doesn't have any control over it to be honest and the Labradoodle wants Ben's floppy Frisbee!

And then this happened........

 
 
Its hard to tell which dog it Ben but he is the dog holding the Frisbee! It was so amazing to watch this, Ben likes to play with dogs but generally he will only play with dogs he knows. I am still smiling about this a week later. It just shows you that working with your dog in a positive way and being consistent and patient does pay off.
