[Stay - 5]
Without a doubt, she knew that things were going to be fine, and she gave him the signal again and walked away, full piece of bacon in hand, waving it around to get the scent out there and to let him see it quite a bit. Red licked his muzzle but stayed where he was thanks to the signal, and he knew he had done well when she came over to him and gave him the full piece, rubbing his head in between his ears and telling him he was such a good boy. She wasn't sure what else to do for the moment, but all the mud gave her an idea, and she figured that's what they would work on next. Jack pushed her hair back a bit and figured they could move on to more interesting stuff soon, but not quite yet, there were still quite a few basics to train the pup.

[Tolerance - 1]
Jack had Red back, she'd loaned him to Fiera to train him up a little for her so she could get used to him before they bred him with her Matronne after awhile, after he grew rather. Smiling, she rubbed the pup's head and then gave him a treat. It was a small thing, but she knew that it would help since he usually pulled away from being touched sometimes. At least Fiera had given him a bath before he'd come back, she told her that he'd been a mess. Back into training, however, the woman smiled a little, pushed up her sleeves, and then moved one of Red's paws for a moment before he yanked it away and glared at her. Usually her Houluh would be a little more loyal at this point, but that was the problem with sourcing out his training she figured with a little smile. It was alright, they would get it.

It was alright she knew as she moved one of his paws again until he yanked it away. She still gave him a treat whenever she was moving him though, that way he associated the two things, treats with being moved by her. It was something that was needed no matter what she figured, and the rest of the training would be even easier after all this. She had a dummy for when he learned bite and claw, but that was fine at the same time. Giving him a treat as she moved his tail around, he yanked it out of her hand after he realized what she was doing. At least this was easy enough to train she figured, just get them used to being moved around while they eat some treats, and the whole thing would work out after awhile. Grinning, she patted him on the head and gave him another treat.

As she pushed her hair back with one hand, she fed him treats with the other. Jack moved his paws around a little as she fed them to him after a little bit, and then smiled when he tolerated it a little more than he had to begin with. That was great, she figured, and the woman patted him on the head again, hoping to see things improve was the point of training always, right? As she worked with him, she chewed on her lip a little and watched him as he ate some treats as she moved him around a little bit more. This was the first thing to do before she taught him to stack, if she did that to begin with, that was she thought. Everything would be fine, she knew that the next two moves were going to be more dangerous than this was she knew, but Houluh weren't too strong at that.

There wasn't much she could do about him right now except to get him to let her move him. Slowly he accepted it with the treats, and then she thinned them out a little bit as she moved him around, his paws, legs, and tail, sometimes moving his head as well. Red didn't like it, but he was accepting it a little bit as time went on. As long as this was seemingly easy with going about her day, she thought that things would just go well long enough to do what she needed to do. Jack stood up and stretched out a little bit, wondering what she needed to do at the moment. That was fine, she had more stuff to train, more moves, more animals, she had to go through them all after a little while she figured with a little smile on her face. Red was just first on her list, unfortunately for him, she assumed.

With Red almost there, she moved him around some more, feeding him the occasional treat as she did so. He was getting it fine, and he didn't seem to mind anymore. A lot less protesting was happening at least, she figured as she moved him around one last time. Then they were done, and she smiled and patted him on the head. She wasn't sure what she was going to do next, bite or claw? Oh well, it wasn't like it mattered, it wouldn't take too long to get them done and then it would all be fine, they could do his show and then they could breed him sooner or later. Jack pushed her hair back and sighed a little, she didn't know how long this one would take, but that was fine, as long as it got done eventually and all that, she thought. Was she a bad person, though, for doing this...?

[Bite - 1]
Well then, all would be well she figured as time happened. Pushing her hair back, she figured having him bite down on things would be good enough to start with now, but she scowled a little and looked at the dummy she had. It was pretty well beat up and all that, but that was fine no matter what. "Okay Red, bite!" she told him, putting a stick in his mouth. He shook his head and backed away, narrowing his eyes at her. It was pretty clear to see that he was wondering why she had gone crazy. Jack simply chuckled and reached out with the stick again, "Bite!" Red snarled a little and finally bit down lightly on the stick when it got too far in his mouth, it was instinct and she knew that was going to work to her advantage. All Houluh knew at least how to bite down, right?

[Bite - 2]
"Bite, Red!" Jack told him again, sternly, as she pushed the stick toward his mouth once more. Red growled a little and backed away, but finally bit on the stick when it got too close to his mouth again. The woman grinned and tossed him a treat, "Very good bite, Red!" She was sure things would work out for him, he needed to be able to hold his own and all that. As long as his clawing when she got to it didn't go for eyes, she would be fine she figured. Jack pushed her hair back and jabbed the stick at him again, "Bite!" Red bit down on it a little harder this time when it got too close, and she whooped with joy at that. At least it was getting easier to train her animals at this point, she figured with a little smile on her face. It would all work out.

[Bite - 3]
Everything would be alright if they kept at it, she knew with a grin. She shoved the stick at the Houluh again, promising soon she would switch to the dummy, "Bite, Red!" The Houluh bit down on it as hard as he could, scraping some of the bark off and definitely making a dent in the stick. Crunch broke bones, but he didn't have the strength for that, not yet she knew. Chewing on her lip as she tossed him a treat, she glanced over to the dummy and shrugged before pointing at it and giving Red the eye, "Bite, Red!" The Houluh pup looked confused, like he didn't know what was going on, and he honestly probably didn't at this point, but he cautiously went over to the dummy and bit lightly on it, keeping an eye on her at all times to make sure he wasn't doing anything wrong.

[Bite - 4]
She doubted that Red would ever get a Marq, but that was fine at the same time, she wanted to work with him no matter what. She praised him for doing such a good job and tossed him a treat for doing a job well done. Jack was pleased when he barked happily at her before chowing down a little, and she grinned when he licked her hand after coming over to her as well. "Bite, Red!" the woman said again, pointing at the dummy. Feeling a little more confident, he bit down on the dummy again with a growl. He wasn't sure if he was doing it right, but the woman tossed him a treat and it was all well and good at the moment. Jack grinned at him and all that, hoping that he would get this down pretty quickly before she moved him on to something new and more exciting, maybe.

[Bite - 5]
As she watched him bite the dummy again and again, sometimes shaking his head while he was doing it, she smiled a little at him. She really hoped that things would be going well for him in the show ring whenever they did his show, and she hoped as well that he would throw some good pups. He was going to be her third Patronne, as opposed to one Matronne, who was Red's mother. "Bite, Red!" she told him again with a smile, and patted him on the head whenever he did what she asked him to do. Well then, that seemed to be about done, she thought, and she stretched out and glanced at the sun. Time for one more move, then a bath and the show ring, she figured with a grin on her face. She couldn't help but be excited for things at this point, and she didn't know what else to do.

[Claw - 1]
Jack pulled Red over to her again and smiled a little, wondering how to start this one. She grabbed his front paw and dragged his claws over the dummy, hoping that things would be alright. Red yanked his paw back for a moment before putting it back into her hand after seeing her face. The woman nodded and then dragged his claws across the dummy again, making his claws dig into the leather a little. Red made a disgusted look for a little while before sighing and doing it again, "Claw, Red!" He looked at her, startled, whenever she gave him the command, but it seemed like this was going to be a little easier than teaching him bite, for example. At least this time they were starting with a blank slate and it was all alright at this point. Jack smiled a little and ran a hand through her hair after patting him on the head.

[Claw - 2]
It was fine, he figured he had an idea of what she wanted, but it felt so weird... This coming from the pup who loved mud, dirt, and all things disgusting. Jack chuckled a little when he told her that much, and she patted him on the head. All things would work out she knew, and the woman laughed again as she looked at things. Red was doing well she knew, and she smiled a little at him before pointing at the dummy again, "Red, claw!" Red looked at it for a moment and then slowly dragged a clawed paw over the dummy lightly before getting a treat. She wanted him to do it a little harder though, which only made sense whenever she thought about it, but until then she knew it was going to be a little bit before he had the move all the way down. At least he had an idea though.

[Claw - 3]
"Come on Red, claw!" she told him again and pointed at the dummy once more. She grinned a little as she looked at him while he dragged his claws over the dummy once again, and wondered if he already had this done and over with. A frown crossed her face, no, there were still some pointers she could give him and all that, and she smiled as she thought about it. There were a few techniques he needed at that, and the woman chewed her lip as she made him dig his claws in harder to the leather. She wasn't sure things would be done at this point, but that was alright no matter what. Red was sure he was done, but that wasn't what she needed to go with. It was a nice day out at least, and she was pleased with that much, but the day was slipping away and she had more work she needed to get done.

[Claw - 4]
All would be well she knew, but she still had to work out some of his technique. The rest of the afternoon was spent getting his position correct and getting his claws digging deep into the dummy. It took awhile, but they finally got it down, she just needed to make sure it was perfect after a little bit. "Red, claw!" she told him, pointing at the dummy, and his claws sank into it as far as they could go at this point, though it wasn't super far that was fine, it wasn't like he was learning how to rend like her Sarane could or anything. Those wicked claws could tear into anything they wanted, Red's were much shorter and not quite sickle-like. She wasn't sure of what was going to happen, and that was fine at the same time no matter what happened. She grinned a little as she looked at him, and then patted him on the head.
