Either way we will continue to work on all of her off-leash obedience to make sure she is reliable when she goes home. She is working very hard and doing a great job.
Bonnie has now had two full work days at the farm. She has done quite well but gave us some things to work on. While her obedience is great in the fence when she is outside the fence something interesting happens. It's almost like she gets some mile agoraphobia or something. All of her obedience is still great (though she has some strong opinions about laying down in cold snow) except for her Implied Stay. She auto sits, lays down, and sits on command very well but if I tried to walk off from her she clings to me like Velcro. I've worked with her on this and she is improving quickly but she is clearly still nervous about me walking away from her. I wonder if this will happen at her home where she is comfortable or if it is linked to her handler leaving her while she is in an unfamiliar place.
