Sheila and Charlie are both getter better at targeting. I'm now able to get jumps out of Charlie - YIPPEE! Sheila's still a bit slow, but given her training background and her age, I'm very happy with her progress.
Charlie's is really starting to get very good at heeling, including sitting when we stop. I've also just about got the nail board on cue. Its such a relief to not have to trim those front nails. Now I can just focus on handling them with no clippers. Its really brought down his stress level.
I'm thinking about purchasing a Manners Minder so we can begin to practice without Sheila being locked up. I believe she is one of the reasons he's so reactive at class. He just doesn't trust her. If I could really keep her focused on something besides me, I think he could learn to work around her. The good news is that its not generalized to puppies!
