Sprocket's tricks

Wednesday. 8.27.14 4:16 pm

Sprocket now knows a number of commands at level 1 (which means only with a treat or other lure).

Level 0 - Does not understand command
Level 1 - Does command with lure
Level 2 - Does command with infrequent reward with hand signal
Level 3 - Does command with infrequent reward with voice command
Expert Levels - Does the following in a large number of situations with distractions.

So, Sprocket is a Level 1 dog (level puppy) for these commands:

Sit
Down
Stay
Heel
Bang (or '"Play dead")
Come
Paw (or "Shake"/"Hi Five")
Stand
Spin/Turn

He's actually getting to level 2 with the fetch thing... since adding treats just totally derails him. He gets so confused. He's like "forget chasing a tennis ball, I want that treat!"

Awesome puppy. We have to get his "Stay" a bit better before we can do distances. His sit went from pretty good to terrible, so what can you do.

In the meantime, Sprocket is learning a lot of things he should do. Like basically chew anything. No Sprocket, you cannot try to snap my nose off/bite my pant legs/grab my shoes... no, not on or off of my feet. He also has... probably THE most annoying bark in the world, which got him in a bit of trouble with the trainer :*) Poor puppy.
