Puppy training has started

Tabatha started school this evening!

First task was to sit(sit).....she managed this

Second task was to lay(down)......she managed this

Third task was to come (come)........the trainer held her whilst i walked away, Tabtha then had to "come" when I called her.........FAILED!!! Tabatha ran off into the kitchen! We tried it again, this time i used the command "here" and not "come" ........hey presto she managed this

Next 3 hoola hoops were placed on the floor and a selection of cones. We had to walk up to first hoop and "sit".......she manged that, then we had to walk up to 2nd hoop and "down"......she managed that, then the 3rd hoop and "stand".....No she sat! Will have to work on the "stand" command

Finally we had to weave in and out of the cones to "heal"......she managed that.

At the moment she is still on the lead, but next lesson we will try it off the lead!

Today was the first lesson, Tabatha was very well behaved but a little distracted by all the other puppies!!!!! Hopefully she will calm down a little next time and concentrate a little harder!! The trainer was pleased and seems to think that Tabs will pick it all up very quickly....sounds promising.
