I’m doing a board-and-train with a little Podenco from Spain. She’s quite a smarty pants, and very willing to work for her meals. Here she is pulling a sock off my foot as one of her dog training tasks during her board and train in South Florida.
Her name is Izzy and she’s a very bright dog and we encourage her to use her smarts 24/7. We challenge her to complete tasks we train her to do, and when we see a natural talent emerge, we encourage it to grow.
Izzy is learning to become a Canine Good Citizen. And because she’s learned to retrieve to an open hand, (we also call that fetch), open doors, open and shut lower cupboards, jump on a lap, and do all the basics other dogs learn such as sit, down, and stay during her board-and-train, Izzy will work out well as an assistance companion to her new owner.
Do you have a dog who could help you out by learning to retrieve dropped items and bring them to you? Love Wags A Tail can teach your dog to retrieve through our boarding and training programs which we service in the Fort Lauderdale, Davie, Weston, Hollywood, Southwest Ranches and Plantation areas. But Izzy is from Naples, a territory we also service for boarders who need training. Also known as boot camp.
