Question
I took my puppy to a group class and I had a hard time getting her attention. At what point should I practice obedience in a group setting?
Answer
I don't use group classes for puppies EXCEPT for working my engagement. I would not take a puppy to a group class with other puppies. I have taken my pups to an advanced obedience class where all the dogs are focused
on their handlers and not looking at me or my pup. I then simply go off to the side and work my engagement with food or toys. I may have to go VERY far away at first in order to keep my puppy interested in me. I don't
actually work on behaviors during this, just engagement and food games.
