So we have not published any new trick training videos with Salty in quite awhile. Tonight I videoed a special session trying to cram as many tricks as we could into a < 20 minute video. We managed to get 27 tricks completed in 19 minutes - Unedited! I don't include in that number any tricks that involved the hand-off or return of any blocks, balls or other props used in the trick. I think he refused 4 or 5 tricks in this session. He was definitely off his game tonight - New video camera, different lighting, Geri was not present ,and she and I had been discussing a very emotionally upsetting topic just prior to the session. He usually rips right thru these sessions; you'll see a lot of hesitation and reconsideration on his part, can't say I blame him. I hope everyone enjoys the video !

That one was pretty easy for Salty. We played a lot when he was a fledgling, on his back. So he was cool with me handling him to show what I wanted him to do. He learns trick so scary fast now, like 1 or 2 tries.
