About time I updated this thread!
Teasel continues to grow in confidence. She is now officially a teenager, but I love to see her with confidence enough to gently nudge boundaries, and test me just a little bit more. Her affection though is so endearing. I always expected her to develop into a bit of an aloof dog, and yes generally she is, but with me there is such a strong connection.
She loves Scentwork. He favourite game is hunting for what we call " catnip squirrels". These are just bits of knotted felt that have been permeated with the catnip scent.
