Lily & Joeri

Lily and Joeri, honourary BH's
They demonstrated attention training by showing an excellent "watch". Lily has retrained Joeri (who originally was not trained to watch) entirely by herself (with some suggestions from her mother Rosellen).

USA should watch out for this new generation of trainers.

Lily & Joeri

This BH had a retrieve —
and the dumbbell's as big as Lily! And when Uri returns in front, she looks Lily straight in the eyes. 'cause they're just about the same size!

Thanks to trial secretary, Jessica, who didn't want to do it, but ended up learning a lot; and to trial helpers Bruce Westerhoff and Rhett Boerger. We couldn't have done it without you guys.
