Hormones

The YouTube video this week shows Boltz in some more pup-like behaviors than in previous weeks when he showed some inclination to climb rank. Young adult hormones can have these swings in behavior, but it also helps that Aidan showed him a strong defense to his testing and it seems to have reduced the intensity and focus of Boltz. Of course, it’s early in the fall and most of our testing takes place in winter, but we do know that Boltz is calmer if he is occupied. Let him get bored, and we have issues. Items that are stimulating include deer hides, legs, beaver tails and rib cages. All items that we have readily available.
