Introduced the cat last night. Loki (20 lb Maine Coon) came over to check out Rusty. At one point they even touched noses while checking each other out.

Maine coons are great!

Well, they weigh almost the same now. Rusty is 19.6 lbs and Loki is 20.1 lbs. He is going for a month-long training in April while I am overseas. He'll be 6 months old then. We still get up, but only once now, at 3:30AM. Girlfriend takes that shift as she can sleep in until 7 as I get up around 5AM to start my day at which time I take both dogs out.

He is getting up there, 6 months old now. Place board training is coming along pretty well as well.

Been working on obedience, and retrieve with focus. He will sit there at this point until I release him with his name or whistle and go get the bird or the tennis ball I have thrown minutes earlier. Also, been working on hiding a bird and have him hunt and find it. He will go away for a few months for further training while I am in Europe sailing starting next month.
