New Test

Yesterday, Cricket and I went to the park where we tried out a new test. I took two different types of treats, her regular food being one and then really yummy meaty treats being the other. I let her off the leash and threw a piece of her normal food about 10ft away. She sniffed her way to it till she found it then I called her back to me where I waited for her to sit and then gave her a really yummy treat. We did this 10 times. Next time, I'm supposed to move before so she has to look for me and then come. This is all supposed to help with recall.
We also did the stay and sit exercise. I'm not sure if she is actually getting any better at this. I mean, how good would any dog be at this if there were about 10 squirrels racing up and down trees all around them? She did it, though...eventually.

Yay Cricket!
