Yes, that was a new environment and it was his breeder being loud so yeah it was a bit much. I started with find my face and that definitely helps but yeah should have gone back to that or some other decompression game. I try for three minutes but agree that one minute would have been better
yes I had tried running a week ago and it was too much- you had said go back to walking, but yeah I will try jogging, then running. This was his first time working here so didn’t want to change too many elements
This was a super distracting environment- there was a class on the other side and people/dogs going different places. I was proud of how well he handled that, was very engaged in what we were doing and not distracted other than that time
