Reuben Days 26 - 30

Day 26 (Sunday) - We attended a social walk at Clumber Park. The social walk is the next step up from a neutral walk where some dogs start to have dropped lines and go off lead, but the focus remains on neutrality/calmness. I took Reuben to work around the other dogs, not for any off-lead time yet. He did really well and even when we got charged by a random off-lead dog, he dealt with it well with diffusing play. He also wore his muzzle so good muzzle training exercise. https://www.instagram.com/share/reel/BA3Rgj7q55

Day 27 (Mon) - Took him to a coffee shop to do some settle work. It was nice and quiet, he had a pup cup, and Input down his settle mat and he made a lot of good choices, sitting and laying in the mat and taking in the sights, sounds and smells of the coffee shop.

Day 28 NYE - Revisited the "placing the bone piece in the brain game" today. Started with asking him to pick up just the bone which he did good, then brought the game base back in and . I worked him in a smaller space so he didn't have room to wander too far and drop his bone too far off the target.

Day 29 - NYD - We did our impulse control trick today, I asked him to hold a hot dog. We've not tried it before but his hold seems pretty well proofed as he did it for a few seconds. https://www.instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3ODY3MjI1MDQ1ODQ1OTM1?story_media_id=3535976263358408447_53805418799&igsh=MW55YTRtbTh1cGNzcQ==

Day 30 - Did some foot targeting/proprioception games with his balance pods and targets. He loves this type of thing, as soon as I get any of the equipment out, he's on it. https://www.instagram.com/share/reel/BAHalTvhE_
