That's other picture I posted was an ancestor. Here's a recent pic of Logan. I'll have to say that he does seem very confident. The only thing that he fears is my husband, but I would say it's more of a reverence than fear. But, he definitely knows his place. My husband doesn't take any shit. Logan does seem to test me more, so I have to resist and be stern. Just as you said your wife had to do. Especially when we first go out. After I do some training and get him good and tired, I then come in w the cuddles. The biggest problem I have is him wanting to "hug". I'm working on it. Overall, he is definitely coming into his own. He killed a rat last week, and he was trying to knock the fence down to get to a opossum. He watches everything. And when the girls are outside, he sits in front of the gate like a guard. Any disturbance and he's up and checking. It's funny, I was telling Zeela he watches over my youngest girls so thoroughly, that I'm surprised he's not stamping ants w his paws so that they don't get bitten. Lol! I'm very pleased with him. He is exactly what we were looking for.
That's too funny about the fire hydrant! It amazes me what will spike them. My EM was spooked by a lot of things when he was young. Once it was a plastic bag, he flipped out and ran, then a garden gnome, that one he would look at and cock his head side to side trying to figure out what the hell it was. Then he would kind of pounce at it. I have to admit they kind of creep me out too!
Your girl is beautiful, and I know you put a lot of work into her. I would love to see videos of her IPO.
