Question:
My puppy is 10 weeks old and is already engaging really well, even in new places and with small distractions. I plan to continue socializing him by going to new places and doing engagement, with progressively more difficult distractions. He's an Australian labradoodle and obviously doesn't focus as intently as the high drive malinois I've seen but I imagine it continually improves with practice.
I'm wondering when I should start luring and shaping behaviors like sit, down, look, etc and in what order. What might the next 2-5 months look like, assuming great engagement is already in place?
