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 smiley4.

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 icon_lol

Loki has no fear of vehicles, which amazes me.  She has very little fear other than losing her footing.  I'm in awe of her resilience.
