FUJI is the newest member of advanced training and is quickly making lots of friends among both the dogs and the volunteers and staff. Fuji is sweet and cuddly. He loves to play, which transfers very well into some of the skills we are working on. Fuji’s current challenge is suspicion barking, particularly when he is startled or woken up from a nap. When he is not training hard, Fuji loves to have a good romp in the yard with new buddies Zivy, Avery and Zaria.
- Skills being learned: ‘Button’, ‘light’, practicing duration obedience, counter conditioning for alert barking.
- Recent field trips: Lougheed Mall, New Westminster Quay.
- Possible behavior challenges: Suspicion barking, separation anxiety.
- Potential career path: Service, AFD or PTSD
Thank you again for all your support of Advanced Dog Fuji!
