Hmm..Odd..I took the petsmart class (2 of them) and they never mentioned this! I wish they had, there's lots of great stuff in here.
Well in particular, I'm worried about the following:
Test 10: Supervised separation
Oy vey! Chewy is a bit of a drama queen when we are seperated, he's always had a lot of separation anxiety, but we've calmed it down...still I don't know if he would go 3 minutes without whining. I'm trying to figure out how to train for this!
Test 8: Reaction to another dog
If he ever met a polite dog himself, I could test this. I tried it with his buddies, but THEY wouldn't calm down enough...
Test 2: Sitting politely for petting
He rarely lets strangers touch him...He often ducks away from any approaching hands. Perhaps my regiment of dominance training (and petting during reward) will get rid of that though...
Still, I have no idea how to train for the above items...
Good luck! Let's see who can get CGC, AKC Basic & Utillity first! |
