If you've met Bubba before but haven't yet gotten to meet Gracie, just picture the exact opposite. Calm, deliberate, social butterfly, in control of ones body...
This past week's learning:
1. Verbal sit and down, most of the time.
2. Mat- Have a send with automatic dog from a distance. Starting duration
3. Crate games- using the crate to start a "stay"
3. Perch work- pivoting to heel/side. Clicking offered hind leg movement without me moving, using the reward to turn her head/body all the way
4.Offering body movements- Shaping the head down trick, and offering tricks previously lured such as rollover and spin.
Oh help! That face sounds like she is an ideal lab. Calm and willing.
