If your dog doesn’t get through it’s test .

Here’s a few words of consolation to those of you may not have got through an end of tem test (EOTS) or a good citizens assessment.
You have put all the work in and you & dog have taken your test /assessment and things just didn’t go to plan !!
Dogs have a habit of displaying behaviours you wouldn’t have even dreamt of under test conditions !
You could scream with frustration as your dear little pooch gets up to allsorts of inventive tricks on it’s test, and you don’t get through. Don’t despair everyone has gone through this experience at some point (especially your trainer) and take comfort in that you are not alone in this.
My little bit of advice to you is don’t give up try again , keep the nerves in check , and try to use the test as a learning tool for what you need to work on next.
Enjoy coming to club and when the next EOT comes you may get through after all your hard work . If things don’t happen you are safe in the knowledge that you always take the best dog home with you.

 Good luck to you all.

Sue Weller.
