After watching youtube videos of some new tricks to teach fargo, i saw the slide one, so, i asked my dad so nicely if he could build me one :p with my designing and his handywork, we did it!! :)

i showed fargo, he isnt scared of anything, so thats good ;) he stepped up, i held out a treat, and he was a bit hesitant, but then he went down!

only problem is, its a bit too short a distance, but it will do ok for now, will just have to teach him to climb the steps himself now :)

2 videos in the next post :D

Because I love the ingenuity of it...how it's constructed AND how brave Fargo musters anything you ask of him....without even hesitating. :D

Very nice, Tab! The slide prop is indeed quite creative :). Fargo now has a regular amusement park/obstacle course within your home ;). And he sure takes to such things quickly! Impressive!!!

He just needs a roller coaster and it would be complete! :09:

I honestly thought he would just fly off, but i asked him to step up, and he just sat on there, so he didn't have a fear of it at all, and he just followed my hand down the slide just to get the nuts ! :p

I think many would conclude that Fargo is fearless. But I personally think he just trusts you so amazingly much that he's willing to try anything you offer him :). You have such a wonderful relationship with that beautiful little guy! :D.

And BTW, knowing you Tab, I won't be surprised if you actually figure out a way to make a roller coaster for Fargo ;).

he did it! he basically learnt to go down the slide in less than a day! :)
He climbed up the steps this morning!
Still have to tap the top, then tap the floor to get him to go down, but he should work it out tomorrow that one tap means to go down! :D
