My 9 month old puppy barked (overexcitement, wanting to say hi) for almost our entire hour class tonight.
The two kinds of treats that I brought did not keep her attention.
I couldn’t juggle handling her leash and trying to constantly feed her treats to keep her focused. The second I’m out of treats and reaching in my bag for more, she’s back to barking at the dog next to us.
When my instructor gave us cheese, she finally focused enough to do what I was asking.
She’s so good at home with no distractions. She knows so many things, but was way too distracted and overexcited today. Everyone says it’s part of class. My instructor said that my pup is super smart, and they’re usually the hardest.
Just still feeling so embarrassed and defeated and behind.
