GEORGE! What a great day for this boy! His stay has progressed amazingly. He's now downing and staying for over 2 minutes with verbal reinforcement. Today's walk had zero pulling and had all sorts of distractions, including an entire lawn company in our way and neighbors coming out to speak to his handlers. All this credit goes to his handlers who keep up on his homework between sessions. Amazing work by all! ๐บ๐ฅณ๐
* Today's Session*
Domino was returned this week, at no fault of his own. The adopters had an abrupt and unexpected life event. ๐
I began my sessions with him again this morning. He needed a little cleaning up, but by the end here we are! ๐
Sitting, following, 3 different speed paces, turns, and a great down. He's back up for adoption. Reach out to me or his rescue if you have a space in your home for this wonderful boy. ๐บ Paws 2 Rescue
"Bas" has had major issues with objects and strangers since we've met. This included people carrying objects of any sort. His mom couldn't even carry her purse around him without Bas darting away. It's been a successful month, slowly acclimating him one session at a time. This was the result and true test! Aldi's parking lot with plenty of people, bags and loud carts. I'd say he passed with flying colors! I'm so proud of Bas and Ms. Phillips! ๐ค
Basquiat is one of my advanced students. Here, we were fine tuning his following on lead at different speeds. Bas had a tendency to forge ahead and/or cross in front occasionally. We fixed it all in less than one session! Ms Phillips really stays on top of his training between sessions and it shows! ๐บ
