Some how I got talked into taking the therapy dog test early with Maze.. Early as in next month early. LOL I've been working hard to get her ready and while I feel she is ready, I wasn't planning on taking the test until the spring. Now we do still have some leash issues, and I'm not going to fool myself and say there's no way she'll fail. But the way I see it, the entire process is a training opportunity.
After discussing some key area's with the tester, I agreed to follow through with the test. There's no food allowed BUT I can have a tuggie stuffed in my back pocket so I can reward her.
