Angier K9 Field Notes
Angier K9 | Play & Training w/Bullet & Zuri!
A session whose stated purpose has nothing to do with obedience: Bullet's emotional state is too low for the training the handler wants, so the handler brings in his own dog Zuri - chosen because she is reliably dog-friendly and takes the lead - to lift him before anything is asked.
