Default Bummer. (Doggah)

I worked with this rescue dog for the last 9 weeks. An hour a night every Tuesday with his new owner.

We went from laying on the floor whimpering, afraid of everything and everybody, to jumping up on people wagging his tail.

Tonight was week 10, beginner obedience graduation. "Penny" didnt show.

No idea. Dawn seems to think she didn't wanna do the graduation in front of everyone.

For 9 weeks it's a class situation. Everyone works in a big ring. Week 10 is graduation, where each person and their dog do a series of exercises alone.

Everyone passes.

I pulled Penny out the first week because she was SO frightened of everything. There are approximately 60 dogs in the place Tuesday nights. I don't think she had been socialized at all. I spent two weeks sitting on the floor with her feeding her, just to gain some trust

Her owner obviously worked with her at home also. An hour a week isn't gonna cure them of anything
