krissn333 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) So...we had our last obedience class tonight. Everyone gets a certificate; however, there are two types of certificates: completion, and graduation. Completion means you've completed basic obedience. They are not sure if you're QUITE ready for intermediate class yet. Graduation means you've completed basic obedience and they feel you are ready for intermediate class. Here's Clarice's certificate: Clarice graduates!! by krissn333, on Flickr Edited April 29, 2014 by krissn333 Quote Kristin in Moline, IL USA with Ozzie (MRL Crusin Clem), Clarice (Clarice McBones), Latte and Sage the IGs, and the kitties: Violet and Rose Lovingly Remembered: Sutra (Fliowa Sutra) 12/02/97-10/12/10, Pinky (Pick Me) 04/20/03-11/19/12, Fritz (Fritz Fire) 02/05/01 - 05/20/13, Ace (Fantastic Ace) 02/05/01 - 07/05/13, and Carrie (Takin the Crumbs) 05/08/99 - 09/04/13.

EllenEveBaz Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Cue the "Pomp and Circumstance". Congreytulations, Clarice! In the picture, it's clear all that mental effort has exhausted you.

Guest Vbeaudry Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I am interested in knowing where you went to obedience training with clarice?? We adopted our retired racer a year ago and have only done some informal training at home as I've been undecided on the best place to go with her around the Edmonton area..please help! And belated congrats Clarice 🎉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissy Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Some of my agility friends here in Edmonton recommended See Spot Run for positive reinforcement basic obedience classes. I haven't had to do any of that here because we did all our obedience stuff in Ontario.

XTRAWLD Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Congrats to Clarice!!! Ryder got one with the first definition you described. He recommended me to take it again because he felt Ryder was still too shy to advance, even though he had completed all of the testing steps to the trainers satisfaction. Go figure. So when does intermediate start?

krissn333 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 We'll take intermediate this winter - gives us a good activity to do when it's cold outside and we can't do much else. Probably after the first of the year, or whenever it gets really cold (still mild enough here that we can get out and do things without misery).

Probably after the first of the year, or whenever it gets really cold (still mild enough here that we can get out and do things without misery). Thank goodness for training in the winter. If only it were enough. Gosh darnit, Edmonton is COOOOOLD! We're already relegated to almost entirely indoor training now.
