Arctic tails

Meds 0530
Fetch inside
handful of food on his mat
Drive to Arctic Tails for breakfast walk. Did pretty well. Got excited at his reflection in the glass.
Went inside willingly, relaxed tail

Retrieved at ~1645. Sniffed at a couple humans inside. Male customer, and female employee. As Temba looped around me and came back to the man, he growled a little. I immediately moved him away, and had him sit for the harness. Sat nicely and left the humans alone. Human was there picking up his dog from grooming. Both dogs got excited when they saw each other, but I quickly led him outside. Drive home was well behaved, didn't need treats.
Outside for pee break. Back inside, for brief down time. Then back outside for fetch.
Pooped before coming back inside.
Gave him bone filled with chicken & PB, frozen.
Downtime on his mat.

Gave a quiet growl when he heard dogs outside, but didn't react much more than that.
Played a warm-up game of fetch indoors then did an extensive training session with his dinner food (chicken, cheese). Trained jumping over my arm, and platz/come. He's was pretty enthusiastic with the training and did really well with platz. Responds well to verbal cue. Scattered some treats on the floor in the hallway while we worked on platz/come. Ignored the food like a champ.

Went outside for fetch instead of walk. Urinated before coming inside willingly.
