Level One Obedience!

TaraLynn · Nov 4, 2008

Starting November 24th Caliber will be attending his first obedience class! :biggrin2:

I'm so excited! I have a feeling it's going to be a pretty easy 8 weeks! He's already familiar with the teacher, as he's had his ears glued by her a couple times(which I'm extremely thankful for! They've held up good so far!), and she did a little grooming session with him last time we were there! I shall keep everyone posted once he starts! If anyone has any suggestions of what I should do before we start, feel free to let me in on some tid-bits! Thanks! :smile2:

Hope the classes go well. Keep us up to date on how he is doing and have fun!

Great going TaraLynn

I'm sure Caliber will do fine and you will bond together well. I have to get Kiara to some classes as well but we have been pre-occupied with the health issues and eating up my Pocketbook!! :lol:

Hopefully after the Holidays we can finally get there. I have been teaching her here at home as much as I can , Kia does have a stubborn streak in her though. :uhoh:

But I love her greatly and want to be certain she learns to be a CGC. :yes:

so how's level 1 obedience?

im going to put bandit in that class, i hope he'll do fine
he's been through puppy kindergarten

Such a Bummer...

One girl....the third girl, backed out of the class last minute. You need three dogs to make it an official "class" - so the instructor couldn't do that class. So it's being postponed until January

I'm sooooo bummed, but she's going to give me some sheets to work on until then. Hey - it's something... :smile2:

That's too bad it got cancelled. January isn't too far away though!

what a bummer :no:

bandit's going to obedience level 1, im very excited about it

i'd hate for that to happen on the first day

That's ashame, but at least it only got pushed back and not cancelled. I can't recall who mentioned it on another forum, but there are many good websites that discuss good starting points in regards to training your puppy. Also, The Art of Raising of a Puppy is a great reference as well to use in the meantime. Best of luck in January though.
