Progress
Weight: 719 grams (25.3619786)
Fed:35 grams quail
Well I've been slowly dropping Wolfs weight and today I saw the result. every day for the past 3-4 days I would take him out to the creance line and whistle at about 15 feet to which he would respond with and almost instant flight to the glove. Then I would work my way away from him the first time he hesitated or didn't come or acted distracted I would pick him up and walk him back to his mews. This seemed to finally have an effect today at his lowest weight. He came to the glove today without being called which was a nice first that I jackpotted him for with a quail leg. Tomorrow I predict that his weight will be a bit higher around 725 grams but that should be good. I will continue to use the same method of feeding him until he doesn't respond well and then putting him up for the day. In this way I am going to try to let him manage his weight.
On a side note, my dog ate my lure, and I have to buy choroplast for the mews, everything costs money!

LOL @ your dog. At least it wasn't a hood or glove!! That is why they put tassles on them I hear.
If you want to save money I have some heavy leather here, a hand-sewing punch, grommets etc, if you want to whip a new lure out.
Also Billy entered at 785 g, I can't remember his trap weight at the moment though . . . . I have a great cottontail spot for you when you are ready ; ) Keep it up wolfman!on
