The beautiful Bonnie the Golden Retriever absolutely smashing her training walk yesterday!
Our main focus for Bonnie's session was real-world neutrality, focus, and polite manners in busy environments.
We kicked off our adventure with a trip to the local pet shop, which is always the ultimate test of impulse control! Bonnie stayed absolutely lovely and calm. We practiced making smart choicesβperfecting the balance between polite, appropriate greetings and calmly ignoring distractions when needed. ποΈπ
After nailing her pet shop manners, we headed out for a scenic walk to continue the exact same theme out in the open. Of course, a Muddy Mutt adventure wouldn't be complete without a bit of fun. Bonnie managed to sniff out some proper treasure along the path!
Real-world training walks are a fantastic way to transition skills from the training field into everyday life. Super proud of you, Bonnie! πDoes your dog struggle to stay calm around exciting distractions like pet shops or busy parks?
