Congratulations to Queso for passing his pre-placement testing! This month, we mainly focused on generalizing and perfecting the skills needed for his PPT. We spent a lot of time on field trips – both inside and outside in an attempt to enjoy the last of the summer weather! When he isn’t working, Queso is happily entertaining the puppy in the house by being an excellent role model for best behaviour. Queso doesn’t know it yet, but next month, we will be working on some super fun client-specific tasks to prepare him for placement in November!
- Skills being Learned: Retrieving difficult items, wheelchair cues, generalizing automatic buttons
- Recent Field Trips: St Albert Mall, Calgary Zoo, West Edmonton Mall, IKEA, dog park
- Possible Behaviour Challenges: None to note at this time
- Advanced Training Location: Calgary
We’re so grateful for your ongoing support of Advanced Dog Queso!
