Ernie is a happy-to-know-you kinda sweetheart. Up for adventure whenever you please. A Wirehaired Pointing Griffon is not a breed you see often but I’ve trained a couple. They are fun gun dogs and they learn quickly but are smart enough to be mischievous also. Ernie has had his foundation in basic obedience laid already by his owners in weekly lessons. This week he is here for “finishing school” to get him conditioned to a remote collar for off leash training.
Today Ernie and I mostly did refresher work on his obedience since we had a longer wait between his lessons and his Board and Train than we expected (darn covid) but he has retained his training very well. He has a few bad habits, like jumping up, that we need to address but by the end of today he was able to enjoy some off leash play time while I got him introduced to his remote. He did well and isn’t too put off by the remote so this should go smoothly! He is a fun dog and I’m so glad he gets to be my first student after this Covid hiatus.
