Lindi and Karen hanging out after class. Vida, Leah and Tigger had lots of fun providing comic distractions while Karen proofed Lindi on her focused attention.
What a great picture!!! Are you serious you made Lindi work on attention while Leah was playing with Vida and Tigger???

Yes, Julie, I did and Karen clicked and rewarded Lindi very frequently for great focus despite the uber distractions. Eight year old Leah also clicker trained Vida in whatever behavior her mom was working on with Lindi at the same time. Leah had never clicker trained or met Vida before and she did an outstanding job. What a family! @Julie

Leah had a blast helping out by providing “a little” distraction for Lindi. She was alternatively zooming around the training room on a four wheeled stuffed Tigger and feeding treats to a another dog. The big lesson I learned from this is that Lindi is capable of doing anything I ask of her, as long as I am able to get my queues right. Thank you Margot for a wonderful lesson.
