Roscoe and the decoy had a miscommunication.  He thought Roscoe was going to bite low because he will bite legs if you attempt some lateral esquive stuff.  BUT if you don't do that he bites high and prefers it.  So basically it turned into a test of how he handles getting no target help on face attacks.  He was all over the place, it wasn't pretty.  He kept his grip wherever it happened to be but....He needs more target work still.  I know he's a full grown boy, so it's hard to remember he's only had 3 months of any sort of bitework in his entire life other than a seminar when he was 6 months old.  Not to mention about a month of that was spent only working leg exercizes like the escort while I waited for his appointment to get his teeth fixed from him chewing chainlink at boarding.  So bottom line is he still is just a baby when it comes to targeting at all.  Next was DOH which is looking reallly good, lots of circling before the hit, he does  the whole exercize basically and with only a few corrections.  He just needs to build on this introducing 2 decoys and utilizing random props like he'll see in a trial.  So now the fun will begin :)
