There is a point in training Bouv's when the light bulb goes on, usually about 1 year, well it has happened with Espy, at 15 months, with one minor wrinkle. In early training we were taught to use a non-verbal foot stomp to mean "Heal-Up" (sit at left knee, ready to heel). Well, Espy has gone through his training doing things, after debated by the executive committee (bouv time).
Now request (commands) followed by a foot stomp are executed immediately.
