Week 6 Exam

We did quite a bit of practicing with the TC this week. I didn’t hit the target 100% of the time but still it is very effective maneuver. It hit the right place often enough to get the point across. Come means come!

So now it’s that time of the week. Test time! As I’ve said before, Molly’s first love is food! So I used food as a distraction. I also three in a few of her toys. The ladybug is her absolute favorite!

After dinner, Mike had to pick something up from Home Depot. Ahhh…the perfect place for all kinds of distractions. Molly and I joined him.

We started in the garden department.

Then went inside the store.

We met a lady who works at the store who was impressed with Molly’s behavior. She went on to tell me her dog is in need of training. That was the perfect opportunity to tell her about this wonderful trainer I know!! Ha! It turns out she gets her nails done where Jessi works and has met Roxanne there before. I gave my testimonial as to how much the training has helped both Molly and I. She is going to contact Jessi to get more information. I told her it is so worth the time and money to have her pup trained by Roxanne and Jessi. It’s priceless!!!

Then there were these guys, very helpful distractions 😊

Molly still gets distracted but it’s good to know she responds to the TC or in her case because she is small, the throw pillows!!
