Molly Board and Train day 1

12/5/2014

0 Comments

 
Today we welcomed Molly, a sweet natured Labradoodle mix to the farm. She is a little on the timid side but mostly she is a classic bouncy puppy. Today we did not do much but introduce her to a slip chain collar and practiced walking on a leash without pulling. She already knows Sit and she loves showing that off. 
Molly has settled in nicely and I am looking forward to working with her more on her on-leash obedience over the next 7 days. Tomorrow we are going to introduce some more commands, most likely Sit, Implied Stay and Come. We will also take a little hike in the woods to get some sniffing done if it isn't too muddy. 
The big obstacle for this girl is going to be her short attention span. I can also tell she is going to be the kind of goofball to try to tease me into playing instead of getting some work done. It is important that we don't get too heavy handed with her. We don't want to frighten her or over correct to the point that she doesn't enjoy the training anymore, but we do also need to make sure that she is complying with commands and isn't getting away with shenanigans just because she is a little darling wigglebutt. Good luck, Molly!
