Very imperfect photograph in all ways, yet it shows a beautiful dog (our young American Lab Arrow) getting some training work. She gets very wound up when out on a "normal" hike on trails... boomerangs on leash, pants, etc. but is better in wide open fields so we have been taking her out to a neighborhood park (that also has trails and a beach) and working with her in fields and slowly re-introducing trails. Trying to get her resettled. This is Arrow and my hubby.
This breed is pretty high strung in general, she is just at the top of the range . Love her dearly though.
