I know that sounds strange, but its true. My husband bought a boat. I took Jordan down to see it. Jordan would not jump the distance from the deck to the swim platform, which on one side was 5-7 inches. Even on our walks he doesn't quite get the idea of jumping across a teeny-tiny ravine. I know I can get him onboard with a plank, but the larger issue is getting him used to jumping/leaping. Already tried food encouragement...didn't work. He's not afraid of the boat, its what he considers that huge expanse of nothingness. Can a dog really think himself out of doing something? I would appreciate all helpful comments. Am I missing something?
