Clark sure is a super star when it comes to his obedience. He is pretty sharp on his commands (though he does still try to "cute" his way out of work every now and then). He gets confused about Down from the Front vs. the Come command and sometimes ends up slithering on his belly to your shoes as a compromise. At least his mistakes are adorable.
He so far has managed to stay on his Placemat for about an hour with regular household (dinner) activity going on. We will see if we can push him to at least and hour and 45 minutes before he goes home on Friday.
He met one of my neighbors on a walk today and he got very wiggly and excited when she wanted to pet him but she was patient and waited for him to sit before she got covered in kisses. His impulse control will improve with age but right now we are giving him the tools to know what he -should- be doing even if he doesn't get the answer right each time. He tries hard and is a good little worker. More tomorrow but for now Clark is right on point with where he should be in his training.
