Thadeus and I ventured to the vets today to get heartworm and fea/tick meds then went to PetSmart to get him a grooming appt and BooBoo nail/ear appt. We decided to sign up for the intermediate class for Thad so we could go over sit stays, down stays, place, come when called and work on distracts better. I kind of like the way PetSmart teaches better but want to get into the beginners class at Red River Obedience because when you are half way through the class you can join the center and have all the practice time you want with your dog. Plus there are some classes I want to take after I have him take his CGC. He could probably pass now but I want him to be able to pass mine, my standards are tough he is a service dog after all.
Today we worked on sits and we had a doggie door put in and even though he has never used it anywhere but the grass we are out of practice on use it on command. That still needs work. watch mes, and sit are good he sometimes get lost on downs only at home around other dogs but it is still furstating.
I went to a therapy appointment and my therapist son has a SD also so we introduced them and let them hang out for a little while. It was so funny Thad is a SP and loves water and she has a fish pond in her back yard and Thad decided he would go swimming:)
