Sandy is still mastering the concept of stay but she’s great if you catch her at the right time😂

This is Sandy’s first time working on a SPOT in public, and she is absolutely nailing it! 🙌 Her and her awesome puppy raiser Kyden are doing fantastic with rear-end movement, which means Sandy is learning how to move those back legs left and right — a skill that will eventually lead into a perfect heel position on the left side. This exercise is great for target training, confidence building, and strengthening, and it’s also a very valuable foundational skill for future service dogs in training. 💪🐶❤️

We got some new treat pouches and Kenzie just had to try one out for herself😂😂

She’s doing great. Still working on her mouthy little self but she definitely understands the basics😊

We had a fantastic training session at Lowe’s with our little potato, Sandy! 🌟 She was an absolute rock star during her food training and desensitization session with her new best friend Colton! At this stage, the focus is all about positive exposure to new scenarios and experiences. Obedience will come as the dogs grow and mature, but the most important thing you can do with your puppy at this young age is socialize them appropriately. This helps them grow into confident, happy dogs who are excited to be part of our big exciting world! 🌎🐶 We’re also thrilled to introduce Sandy’s new puppy raiser family: Colton and his brother and sister Kyden and Kenzie and super mom @Holly Westcott . Colton is already showing he’s a rock star too, and tomorrow Sandy will be officially placed with her new foster fam!!🎉 We can’t wait to watch their journey together and share all of their progress inside Cool Dog School.🐾💙
