| Skill | Comment | We focused on | Grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skill learnt: Recall | Comment: For his first session we worked on recalls outside around another dog with a focus on shaping the finish position as middles. Ollie was good at both parts separately (including middles from the front and turning around to finish) but needed luring and guidance to chain both together. By the end of the session the trainer just had to hold a hand between their legs to guide him to finish in middles (otherwise he would come to the side and sit). Keep working on this, he is getting closer! | Focus: Repetition | B |
| Skill learnt: Drop/ Down | Comment: For his second session we worked on RLGL outside around another dog with dogs barking in the kennels and cars moving in and out of the carpark as noise distractions. Ollie had a lot of fun with the tug but his drops were a bit so so - he would often sit or need further guidance to go into the full drop. | Focus: Distraction | B |
| Skill learnt: Place Training | Comment: For his last session we worked on place training outside on a towel for his Cafe training. Ollie was OK going onto the towel but didn't always stay there - initially he would step off for quite a few distractions but he did improve over the session. By the end he was going onto the towel and lying down on it almost right away but was distracted trying to chew the sticks and grass around him instead of settling. | Focus: Distraction | C+ |
