Hachi certainly is capable of looking dubious. His side-eye is wicked.
I loved the time that I had with him out in the golden aspens. We've worked very hard at his training for stays and recalls, and it showed! He's a smart and obedient dog. His issues all revolve around fear.
His ability to recover from being worried continues to grow - this one was from just after the "side-eye" worried one. Thanks to those of you who pointed out that recovery ability is a sign that things are going in the right direction!
Hachi will be turning one year old this week. Happy Birthday, little guy!
omg omg your furst birthday!!!! how great is that!!! celebrate like a pro with lots of love and kisses!

Wow, already almost a year old! He is such a nice boy and so happy in your photos.
ReplyDeleteOne year, it seems he has been with you so much longer. This milestone, he has come so far and I'm sure the next year will see his fears diminish in huge amounts. Enjoy those autumn leaves and golden colours.
