It's never too early to start working on Impulse Control. Look how nicely Cal sits at the door. He even waits for the release cue before going out of the door. Such a gentleman.

Maybe I shouldn't have taught Mo to open his treat cabinet 😂

Teaching my dog, who is an obvious lefty, the he can move counterclockwise as well with a little help from a chair and treat placement. :)
Thanks Hannah Branigan!
I love teaching impulse control. When you have a dog that will calmly sit, down or look at you before going outside, eating dinner, getting into a car, running after a ball, you have a dog that is making good choices on their own.

Teaching Mo to work around distraction :) The goal is for the distraction to be the cue to look at the handler. And at the Indiana State Fairgrounds & Event Center there are A LOT of distractions.
Can you tell who is who? Mo is Daisy's half-sister <3 Daisy is now working with a veteran as a psychiatric service dog. Mo is 8 months old!
Building confidence in your dog can be fun for everyone. We were able to work on socialization and walking on new surfaces at the park. I'm not sure these two will ever exceed at agility ;)
