Left him with a dental chew.
Returned ~0730. Brief fetch outside for pee/poop. Fence fighting with neighbor dog again. I gave him sausage treats when the dog started barking inside, and he did ok with this for a little bit. Neighbor dog came outside and Temba ran to the fence and dashed back&forth along the fence, barking/clawing. I shoved a piece of sausage into his mouth. I felt his teeth on my hand, but it was just a light gnash. Temba violently gobbled up the sausage but kept going along the fence. I led him by the collar a little away from the fence, and enticed him with the ball. We played in the back corridor until neighbor dog went back inside.
Treated Temba for coming back inside.

AM meds @ 0800
Breakfast in orange ball. Only had about 1/2 of it.
Long sick nap for me.
Woke up around 1330; played lazy fetch with tuffbone.
Gave him a half-full PB/marrow bone to gnaw on while I did work.
Nose work. Enjoyed it, and getting better at it. Stayed put until I cued him about 90% of the time. Also found target box when it was placed in odd locations (on couch, under table, on chair, behind couch).
Gave him PB bone to work on and relax on his mat.
Played intermittent fetch/tug with Tuffbone while I did work.
Muzzled dinner walk. Lunged at one passing car. There were a few other cars that passed by without incident and for those cars he looked to me as a car approach. I praised & treated him for this!
Fetch inside with glow ball because neighbor dog was already barking like stupid. Downtime, gave him a dental chew. Then a carrot. (He just chewed up the carrot, didn't eat it this time. I saved it in a baggie in the fridge for later.)
