Rebekah, there were few 🥴 be careful moments with him, but you read him well and worked to reestablish your leadership. Particularly liked you doing the "Swing", jumping him off table, then having him jump up again onto the table to break the tension.
My only pointers? 1) He needs the ends of the dB painted white, this will become critical on the next lesson. 2) When you command "Fetch" and he does well, then you comman "HOLD", do not touch him at all. He knows what "Hold" means bow and is responsible to do so without any touch by you. In this video, it looks like you cage, then take you hand away. Nope, command "Hold" once his mouth is on DB and simply put your right fist under his chin at least 3-4" away. When he drops it, and ge will, you know what to do.
Do pay particular attention to his eyes as tou work him, they are the clear indicator of Wehat he is thinking.
he wasn't gassed at the end of this session. making improvements every day
