This is one of my favorite Ninja pictures… Usually he is simply toddling along, sniffing here and there. It is almost as if he was a bit drowsy or missing out his morning coffee. However, in a matter of split-seconds Ninja is 100% focused and then this is his face.
Unleashed, this would be THE moment to recall him. Right now he is trying to evaluate what he saw and if it is worthwhile to explore… if I’d allow him to run and if it was worth to get into trouble for exploring…
I think most dogs can still be “distracted” in this phase with a moderate amount of training. If you practice impulse control with your dog, you would be able to extend this phase from a split-second up to a few seconds…
A slight whistle or saying his name usually does the trick and he will move towards you.
Nevertheless… I love this facial expression… the stare, so focused, evaluating, trying to make sense of what he sees… his nose wiggles left and right to get the faintest scent…
