My Cooper

I am still working with Cooper, mainly with his manners, and to heel. I now make it a point to at least once a day, throw some treats in my left pocket, and take him out so he continues to retain what he’s learned this far. And with any luck, maybe he’ll become more rooted and behaved!!!

I want to get through our summer vacation before I look up and commit to any new training… thinking more about the few I learned about from the dog park. But I want to first work with him on my own.

• Sit
• Down
• Leave It
• Drop It
• Heel (with “Side”)
• Sit and Stay
• Down and Stay
• Cooper Come
• On Your Bed
• Shake
• High Five

These are all the commands he actually knows… but he needs to get more rooted in them (with distractions).

I was excited to learn which place to look into so Cooper can do volunteer work!!! Maybe when both kids are in school fulltime, him and I can start making a positive impact?
