So 4, 2 and a pup.

You're committed :)

Looking forward to your journey together. What club are you training with since the move?
Yes. Just when it’s stable I spice it up. I’m lucky right now that they all get along, which makes handling them together easy. Everyone has clear relationships. Right now I train with Sam smith’s group and I occasionally visit Stetson in Cape cod. I need someone I can work the non sports stuff with. I enjoy visiting and working with different people.
 
@Carter Smith Here’s an actual look at what Kodak is like. Right now it’s basically all building and some luring.

That’s awesome, I’ve never actually seen that type of training in a casual setting.. is the bark natural when being restrained and wanting the ball? I think that pup is going to look phenomenal! IPO in the cards?

It’s taking natural frustration and building on it. It’s an exercise used for building ball drive. The bark comes naturally. When it works the dog goes to it more. You just ask the dog for more and more to be successful. I plan to work him in IGP. He has a lot of natural traits that work well for me. We’ll have to see how he matures.
 
Looks just like my friends coated pup! Will be very handsome!
