Congrats Karen and Elly! Welcome to elite!
Thank you! We had an amazing week. After not trialing for over a year we got two NW3 Titles this week 
.
When we do drop ins out in the world, the trainer is always telling me to take Loki to this room or that for exposure to different surfaces.
I inadvertently did this with Elly before I knew about Nose Work, but we were working on her fear and anxiety issues. Then once we started NW our instructor advised us to do the same thing- but again to work on her fear issues. We went to lots of pet stores and were regulars at Home Depot. I did all the drop in and practice trials I could find. I'm probably lucky that she never developed slipping issues, thank DOG for that- her other issues have been plenty to overcome.
Did Loki have any vehicle fear issues? Elly was afraid of moving vehicles when I first adopted her (when we were walking).
Congratulations! Looking forward to the blog update!
Well, that's subtle
