Hey Tribe,
Last weekend the pups got a dose of gun proofing and they
were awesome. We went to the gun range
where folks were doing their target practice thing and the pops and bangs were
pretty loud.
We played in a grassy area down the hill from the range, so
the noise wasn’t as loud, but we could still hear everything.
The pups were so focused on hunting mice and leaping in the
tall grass that they never had any thought to be afraid of the loud noises.
Fickle weather has left us with only a small dusting of
snow, but the fog was a lovely addition to the setting – making old trees even
more mysterious.
The outing was a fun way to ensure that noises, such as gunshots,
aren’t something that will cause fear and it makes the dogs more reliable in a
variety of settings.
The holidays are approaching: hopefully fireworks won’t be
an issue either! Just in case, I will
have specially designed doggy earmuffs handy to diminish the noise. Stay tuned for a MuttMuffs review.
