Training summary: Dodger practiced the fundaments of the air command today. After repetition he understood the feeling of leash pressure and did great. He does put up a bit of a fight when it comes to entering and exiting the crate throughout the day. He is not a fan of this but we do expect that after lots of repetition since he will enter and exit multiple times a day, he will learn to be less opposed.

Training summary: Dodger has been learning to complete the sit & down command around distractions and is slowly but surely catching on. He is often distracted and wants to nip or jump when he feels too much tension on the leash or wants ti get out if any situation so it’s important that we lightly stress him in stimulating environments and quiet ones to overcome these challenges.

The front yard is a great place to incorporate daily training because this allows him to see that card don’t need to be chased, people/ dogs don’t need to be barked at and what’s most important is whoever is asking him for commands
