[Holmes: Bite - 1]
It was starting to get much warmer by the river, and the woman sighed a little as she patted Holmes on the head, getting her blindfold off was just the first part, and at least things were good for this at the moment. All she needed to do was train up three little moves, ones she had trained before even, and then they could do Holmes' show and that was the best part, right? Other than breeding, that is. Giving a small sigh, the woman shook her head and then poked the pup with a stick after checking on the other two pups laying there for a bit, "Bite, Holmes!" The pup stared at her as though she was crazy, but the woman explained that she needed to use her teeth on the stick and bite down as hard as she possibly could, and then she figured she understood a little bit better. Sighing a little, Jack tossed her a treat when she bit down a little and hoped that it was going to be enough to get to her show after all of this. Jack scratched the back of her head and then shook her head, hoping that everything was going to be fine. She wondered if things were going to work out for her in the long run, if all of this was going to be in vain when she thought about it and all, but... there wasn't much she could do about it at the moment, right? Just keep working.

[Holmes: Bite - 2]
Biting was pretty easy when it all came down to it, but she hoped this wasn't going to take a long time for this as well when all was said and done. Giving a little sigh, she realized her heart wasn't in this, but she didn't know what else to do right now other than this, and the three Houluh all looked at her expectantly for now, and she gave them a little smile. Maybe she shouldn't train them in order of birth, but... that was how she tended to do things, which was an issue no matter what happened. Jack pushed her hair back and smiled at them before poking the stick at Holmes again and telling her once more, "Bite, Holmes!" The Houluh nipped at the stick but made a face when she licked her paw, trying to get some of the bark off of it, not that there was much there to begin with. The woman chuckled a little and tossed her a treat, pleased with what was going on at the moment and hoping that things would keep going the way they were going. If only she just had the one Houluh with her, but it made sense to bring three of them when it all came down to it. A little frown crossed her face, she was worried about Eclipse getting too hot and all that, but there wasn't much she could do for that at the moment, just keep him cool and hope things worked out.

[Holmes: Bite - 3]
Jack had a few ideas of what to do with the other two Houluh she had with her at the moment, and she wondered about not bringing more with her when it came to them, but decided she would probably suffer through it. Chuckling softly to herself, she pointed at the stick and looked at Holmes again, "Bite!" She watched as Holmes nipped at it and then jumped back, barking at the stick with narrowed eyes. "It's not going to bite back, Holmes..." she muttered, tossing her a treat, "You need to do it harder though, come on, you can get this, I've got faith in you." Looking at the sky, she realized it was going to be the end of the day before they were finished at this rate, and the other two were laying down again in the shade, which was definitely a good thing for Eclipse, and it's not like it was going to hurt Magpie to be in the shade as well. She tossed them both a little treat for doing well in the heat, and she hoped that it was going to go well for everyone involved no matter what happened. Smiling to herself, she hoped they would grow into lovely adults who would be bred for even more beautiful pups. Of course it was going to hurt to get into giving pups to the HAA again, and she needed to train up the ones she had for now before she could adopt some more, just her own code.

[Holmes: Bite - 4]
Giving it some thought, she wished she was going to bring things after what she was doing at the moment. Would she lessen the amount of Houluh she brought with her to the river when she got a little overwhelmed? Sighing, she knew it wasn't going to happen, but it was a nice thought no matter what. All she could do was keep going and hope that everything was going to end up alright. It was getting brighter and hotter out as she glanced up at the sky with a frown, it was fine if she thought about the whole thing as she thought about it. Eclipse was going to be fine, he wouldn't overheat, though it would have been better if she would have trained all of her Silky Houluh in the winter instead of now. As she shook her head, she pointed at the stick again, "Bite, Holmes!" The pup barked and wagged her tail before biting down on the stick harder than she had before at the moment, this was much better and she knew that things were going to be alright in the long run. The woman gave her a treat and patted her on the head as she praised her a little bit, and that was going to be fine as well. Jack scratched the back of her head and sighed a little as she thought about what Holmes was going to look like when she grew up, and she really hoped it was going to be fine.

[Holmes: Bite - 5]
It was going to be fine, this training would be finished soon and it was going to work out in the long run to do what she was doing, she just had to focus on what she was doing right now, right? Jack smiled a little and pointed at the stick again, "Bite, Holmes! Last time." Holmes bit down and growled a little as her teeth crunched into it and it split in two. It was going to be alright in the long run, she knew that Holmes would be trained up sooner rather than later and she wasn't going to have to worry about it anymore. Smiling a bit, the woman pushed her hair back and looked around for a moment, wishing there was someone around for awhile no matter what happened. It was going to be fine, she figured, she was lonely but she had her animals, which was a good thing right? Maybe she should just bring one at a time, that might work out better in the long run, though she wasn't sure what else to do with things at the moment. She chewed on her lip and sighed again, she wasn't sure what to do with things no matter what happened. This had to stop, she wasn't doing anything with Magpie and Eclipse, she shouldn't have brought them along in the long run. Another sigh, she wasn't sure what to do for the moment, though the answer had to be there... right? It only made sense, she figured.

[Holmes: Claw - 1]
She had half a mind to take the other two back to the Kennel, or at least ignore them until Holmes' training was complete. She wasn't going to do that though, much to her misfortune as she checked on the two of them with a sigh. Well, she was almost done with this and then she would move on to Magpie's training, which worked for her so far she figured with a small smile. Right, on to new things she thought with a little sigh as she looked at the two-toned Houluh pup. Holmes was staring at her expectantly, and the woman figured she shouldn't keep her waiting for too long at least. "Alright Holmes, claw," she told her, dragging the pup's claws along the wood she had gathered for this type of training. Holmes yanked her paw back and woofed, not liking the feel of it against her claws, but there wasn't much she could really do about it if this was something she was supposed to learn, however. She whined a little but got a treat, and then changed her mind pretty quickly, while she didn't like the sensation, it was something she was going to have to live with she expected. The woman had some odd ideas for them all, and she wasn't quite sure she enjoyed it at this point, but that was fine, just this and one other thing and then they would be done with her training, or at least that's what Jack was telling her.

[Holmes: Claw - 2]
Jack pushed her hair back and plopped a hat on her head, it was starting to get pretty hot out, and being by the river certainly didn't help things. She sighed as she looked at Magpie and Eclipse, wondering if they were really okay in this heat, but especially Eclipse, being a Silky with the much longer fur. Chewing on her lip, she shook her head, that wasn't something she needed to focus on right now, unfortunately, she really needed to focus on Holmes and get things going for now. As she thought about it, she stretched out a little and popped her back and shoulders before pointing at the wood and then dragging the Houluh's claws against it, much to Holmes' irritation still. A chuckle escaped her and she gave her a treat though for doing a good job, even though she had done it at this point. Oh well, things would go, they usually went her way when she was training she had noticed. Her will was great and she knew that she could do whatever she wanted to get what she wanted done with her animals. Sighing a little, she knew they were mostly food oriented, something she had certainly taken advantage of many times it would seem. Ah well, that was fine she figured as she patted Holmes on the head with a little smile, she knew things would be alright in the end. Holmes would get her training and that would be that she thought, checking on the other two for now.

[Holmes: Claw - 3]
"Claw, Holmes," the woman said again, suppressing a small sigh. She watched as the Houluh pup looked at her claws and wrinkled her nose a little before dragging them across the wood. Giving a small chuckle, Jack tossed her a treat and leaned back against the boulder for a bit, glancing at the sky. It had passed high noon already and the sun was slowly going to dip into the horizon, but not before they were finished and she left with the three Houluh. That was the issue though, was she coming back with another set of three, or was she just going to bring two next time, Magpie and Eclipse? She chewed on a nail for a bit and then shook her head and stretched out, glancing over at Holmes again with a smile. She wasn't sure what all she needed to do for now, but she assumed it was going to be fine in the long run. Holmes was picking this up pretty quickly, and the ring definitely seemed to help things out when it was all said and done. She just hoped she could keep up the pace, she knew a lot of things that needed to happen between now and when she was fully done with everything, but that was alright in the long run she suspected. Jack groaned a little and stood up to walk for a bit, stretching her legs a little so that she wasn't stiffening up any. The next training would be a little harder, she had only trained it once after all, but time to focus.

[Holmes: Claw - 4]
She watched Magpie and Eclipse for a little bit before shaking her head and refocusing on the Houluh she was training at the moment. "Okay Holmes, claw!" she told her, and the Houluh pup scratched her claws against the wood again, rather effectively this time as well it would seem. The woman smiled a little and tossed her a treat, flipping the wood over onto it's other side so she was clawing a fresh face of the wood. That was the hard part, though sometimes she just had them go against the same spot over and over again for consistency and to tear the piece in two if need be, to boost their confidence and all that. Jack chuckled a little and hoped that things were going to be fine in the long run, though there was no real way to be sure about that at this point. Sighing, she shook her head and wished she knew the future of this species, but that was a hard thing to come across no matter what happened. Ah well, she had plenty of things to do right now, she had a whole heap of Houluh and Sarane, both species she could speak with as well, and she knew that she was going to need to figure things out after a little while. Well, she really needed to get this done if she was going to do it and all that, and she hoped that she was going to have the time to do it in.

[Holmes: Claw - 5]
The end was drawing ever closer, and she was sure this was going to work out in the long run. Giving a little sigh, the woman wished she knew what she was going to do in the future, but there was no real way of knowing at this point was there? There had to be time to get all this done, or else it was all for naught, and she didn't want that in any way, shape, or form. Chewing her lip a little as she watched the three Houluh, two of them sleeping at the moment, she hoped this wasn't just something she needed to do for herself, but for many other people. Jack shook her head with a little sigh, she would get this done, that was perfectly fine she knew. "Claw, Holmes, last time!" she told her with a small smile, though the Houluh understood something was wrong with the woman at this point. That was alright though, something often upset her it seemed. Jack watched as Holmes clawed her way through the wood and then licked the splinters off of her claws, before tossing her a small treat for doing a job well done. Just one more thing and then they could be done for the day, and she thought she had made up her mind what she was going to do with the rest of her Houluh, it only made sense to bring them out like this, but it would be better in the long run if she gave them individual attention.

[Holmes: Jump - 1]
A little trickier than clawing with the pup's claws was jumping and landing on the opponent to hurt them. It was a hard thing, she figured, but they would get it done, it couldn't be all that bad could it? Jack sighed a little and then checked on Magpie and Eclipse for a moment before nodding and explaining it to Holmes by way of her ring. "Okay I say 'jump' and I want you to leap into the air and then land on what I point to, okay?" she told her, waiting for Holmes to nod and then pointed to a bit of wood, "Jump!" The Houluh wagged her tail and wiggled a little before jumping a little ways into the air and pouncing on the piece of wood. Hmm, not bad, but not exactly a big jump, she figured, but that's what training was for, it was for progress, and that's what they would do for now. Keep working at it and then she would finally be good to go she figured with a little smile. Jack tossed her a treat and ruffled her fur a bit, wondering what was going to happen now that they were almost done. She could do her show and then be done with that for awhile, though she definitely had more Houluh to train right now. Ah well, that was fine, she would get it done eventually, or at least she hoped that much she figured with a small sigh as she looked around.

[Holmes: Jump - 2]
This would be easy enough after a little bit she figured with a small smile, and the woman chuckled a little as Holmes sniffed around for a little bit. It was more of a pounce than a full blown jump, but she didn't know what was going to happen right now. All she could do was critique her form a little and figure out what she needed for now. Smiling, she adjusted how Holmes was standing for the moment and then told her again, "Jump, Holmes!" The pup jumped into the air a little higher than she had the last time and went forward to jump onto the wood. She stomped down a little bit, falling as hard as she could, and the wood bent underneath her for the moment. This was the best part she figured with a little smile as she tossed a treat to the pup. Holmes trotted around for a little while as she wondered what to do as she figured out what she was going to need for the future. She didn't know what was going to happen when she grew, but she knew it was going to be great, and the woman tried the best to get her to grow as well she knew. Jack kneeled down a little bit as she thought about it a little, and she hoped that what she was doing was going to be for the best, and what she was going to do in the future she knew with a frown.

[Holmes: Jump - 3]
There were a few more times that she was going to have to do this in order for Jack to be happy, the Houluh pup knew. It wasn't that she had it down yet, but she knew it was only a matter of time before things finished up and she could do her show. Panting happily, she looked up at the woman and beamed, wondering what was going to happen in the long run, and she hoped it was going to be fine. Jack patted her on the head and then smiled a little before pointing at the wood again, "Jump!" Holmes looked at the wood and then waggled her back end before leaping into the air a little higher than last time and coming down onto the wood as hard as she could at this point. This was great, she was doing really well and the woman knew that it was only a matter of time before this was all said and done. Smiling, she just hoped she didn't need too much more to go if things were going the way she wanted them to, but she frowned at the same time. It wasn't like Eclipse and Magpie needed a lot right now, considering they were asleep, but she was still worried about them for now and all that. Giving a little sigh, she shook her head and didn't know what else to do as she tossed Holmes a treat for doing a job well done this past time and all.
