Yes! My baby does have toy drive! I was so afraid that he would not have toy drive like he needs to have for agility. Toby has toy drive at home. He loves playing squeekie ball in the hallway. He loves to tugh in the front room. He loves pushing a pool noodle across the yard. But when I take Toby to a new place he wants no part of any toy. I guess I just needed the right toy.
Last night I took Toby's favorite toy to obedience class with us. We arrvied about 15 minutes early. I took out his toy and play just a bit with it. He was so so with it. Then we had class. Man! great improvement just in one week. The class went a little long. When the class ended I took out Toby's toy once again. He had a blast! I know I am going to look a little funny with a long stick with rope and a fuzzy on the end sticking out of my pocket, but if this is what I need to do for my Tobes then this is what I am going to do. I am sure if I keep up with it, it won't be long before he is tugging with me with a normal tug toy.
As far as obedience class, it went great. We both had fun. We were very good last night. Learned some more stuff to work on. We need to practice finishes. On the recall Toby can now catch the piece of food that I spit out of my mouth when he stops and sits facing me. We had to practice that one a lot this week. What a great trick. At least for me it is.

WTG Toby!!! Got to love the puzzles our furkids present to us!
I am so glad you're feeling much better about him! I know you guys have what it takes to be stars, but you know, it takes a long time to build a galaxy *grin*
