Rufous has been picking up sound foundations at lightning speed, and he absolutely loves it. He thinks the coolest thing about the job is that he gets to leave his bed and positions when the sounds go off, which always means that food is coming! On top of working hard on his sound work, we have also been spending a lot of time outside and working on our on and off-leash manners and recalls.

Skills being learned: Pairing timer with nose poke, sound hunt, generalization
Recent field trips: Homes Alive Pets, Dollarama, Home Depot
Possible behavior challenges: Spikey Arousal
Advanced training location: Calgary, AB
Potential career path: Hearing Dog
