Way to go Lilo...congratulations! |
Congrats Lilo! Way to go. You will love therapy dog work. It is very rewarding. Heidi and i have been doing it for a year and a half. I also wanted to take agility but our training center requires that you take novice 2 obedience first and the class was filled last go round. She's 3 yrs now though & getting to be a good couch potato, so i hope we can still do it. They are so much fun aren't they! |
I just love that Lilo is so Fabulous! Yet still finds time to give back to her community! You Go Lilo:) |

Great job Lilo!! You are one smart cookie :D |
yeah Lilo, you are such a cute little smart cookie and congrats to mom, all the hard work is paying off. I have to agree with the gal that said she was one of the most focused dogs she has seen. I thought that when I watched the video of her when one of her friends came over to play. The other dog was all over the place but you could see Lilo, would have nothing to do with the dog, she just went through the course like no other dog was around, it was almost like she was thinking you silly dog get out of my way so I can do this right. I show that video to a lot of my friends to prove how well some little dogs can focus and take direction. Perhaps you could post that video here so people know what I mean. |
Congratulations! How did you get started with therapy training? I want to do that with Lucy. Did you go through the AKC? We have private companies that do the training here - but it's very expensive. Thanks. Tracey |
Whoo hoo!! Go Lilo!!! Accomplished so much in so little time! So proud of you! |

Ive been training LILO myself for a very long time now. We tested for her CGC first when she was 6 months old and then wait to take her therapy test because you can take it only after they turn 1, so we scheduled it a few days after her birthday. The akc doesn't really have a training program but they have started a program where you can earn an AKC therapy dog title after completing 50 visits. (that's LILO's next goal.) We decided to register and test with therapy dogs international but you can look local therap dog organizations near you online since each hospital accepts different registrations. You should also take the CGC first since it helps a lot with the preparation for the therapy test you can learn more about the akc here American Kennel Club - AKC Therapy Dog Program And here are some general things you can train for http://www.tdi-dog.org/images/TestingBrochure.pdf Good luck! |

How long did it take you to train Lilo? I'm working on "sit" and can't seem to get Lucy to do it. She gets board with the process and just walks away - no matter what the treat! I've watched instructional videos over and over and nothing is working. Oh well, Lilo looks fantastic, however. Best wishes, Tracey |
