,
service dog
Gracie had her first "real" outing this past week as we went somewhere other than a dog trial. She did not want to lie under the table but I told her I'd allow a sit, for now. She only did 2 quiet demand woofs :)
1. Perch work- Adding verbal cues for heel/side as she now pivots 100% to my leg on both side without help, can maintain position through quarter turns, and can find position with treat tosses to the side.
2. Back feet- Starting to introduce the 2o2o position on a box. She is "offering" it with me directly in front of the box.
3. Shaping retrieve- no progress on any opening of mouth. Will start plan B this next week although I'm currently not sure which plan I want to make into "B" :)
4. Stays- Starting to work on stay without her mat or her crate. Duration or my movement to the side.
