Today Monster and I were in the garden when our neighbor came out to his garden to work. This neighbor is an old man and very hard of hearing, which means he moves strangely (to Monster's eyes), he shouts very loudly (and so do I when talking to him), and he keeps coming closer and closer (to try to hear better). In short, he's Monster bait...
But, today I managed to get a very good reward situation going with Monster, where he'd look over and remain calm, and continuously accepting rewards. Towards the end he even looked and then turned back to me a couple of times! So, so wonderful, when ordinarily he'd be bouncing around along the hedge separating the properties and screaming his head off with no ears open for my opinion on the matter.
