30th March

Trainer’s Notes:

Started with leashing Hops up and waiting for calm. It took approximately 45 seconds to obtain calm. He’s losing the classically conditioned over threshold response to the leash.

Then worked the door real quick with unsolicited eye contact with an focus on calm. A couple reps and Hops was released outside and immediately reoriented.

We waited for calm again before moving on. It took about 20 seconds.

We loose leashed walked to the field, focusing on calm and cool. Hops easily made the walk to the field maintaining calm.

We shifted gears once we hit the field to heeling. A cookie on nearly every step kept Hops in solid position.

The leash was released and Hops stayed engaged. Upon dismissal he went for the discs on the ground.
