So my big man Bumpy was pretty good in training this past Saturday. I did what everyone recommended and kept him closer to my leg and away from cones and lo and behold he did not lift his leg on anything. We worked on the lunge line (25 feet) and he was really good as well. Did his sit stays and down stays like a pro (he is really smart - lol

. He still doesn't want to stand from a sit, but I think he is ticklish, because that is when he gets jumpy - when I touch his side.
The good thing is that Sunday we had a bbq and had 40 people over and he was quite the welcome wagon, greeting everyone, including many strangers to him with a wiggly nub. He and my pit showed off for everyone the entire day and slept like babies that night - I am sure after getting many handouts from people when I wasn't watching. I took pics and will upload them soon.
