Training Delayed 😭




We are going to be behind this week.   We are packed and ready to evacuate if necessary.  It’s really bad here.

Week 3

 Hello Jon and Karen,


I have just returned from CA.  Here is the Week 3 material - there is A LOT of new material. If you are thinking you need 2 weeks to complete, lmk so we can adjust the timelines of the learning sequences of various exercises. 

This IS a critical week as there are two EXAMS and when the dog can successfully complete the Week 3 EXAM # 2, they will have begun internalizing the learning and taking responsibility for their choices and positions. This is NOT THE WEEK to 'take things easy' as the more rapidly we pile on this new material, the faster the learning dog assimilates it internally. 

I am soooooo delighted to be home again. It has been a really emotional weekend.

Practicing the kiss #2


 These videos took about 30+ times.  Wolfe seemed to struggle with it.  He wanted to lay down many times.  But we kept going until he could do it at least 3 times in a row.
