Dinah's Specialty
Jul. 27th, 2018 01:27 pmHalo is a herder, Jack is a hunter.
Dinah, until now, didn't seem to have a specialty. She stuck close to me, and I started noticing how she saw everything first. She would notice a coyote 300 yards away. She realized that I liked it when she saw things, and that reinforced her behavior. I would stop and look when she had that intent gaze. Eventually I would see what she had noticed. This morning, she actually "pointed" for me to a spot across the creek. It took a few moments but suddenly, a hunting owl flew from that spot.
Dinah is a pointer.
