Allie’s mom and dad met and adopted Allie on Sunday, July 6th, 2014! After picking her up, Allie and her forever family went straight to Petco. That was when her parents witnessed her reactivity to other dogs. They knew she could benefit from training, so they signed Allie up for a six-week, basic obedience class that day. They completed two, six-week classes at Petco and have done additional training with Allie at a local dog daycare/training facility.
When Allie was first adopted, she didn’t know any commands, had poor leash manners, was reactive to other dogs, and was anxious and fearful of seemingly random things. Allie’s mom and dad believe she was previously abused and possibly had something traumatic happen to her, involving something falling from above, because she sometimes gets scared of moving objects above her, and would flinch if you raised your hand. For example, when Allie and her parents first moved into their house, Allie was scared of the oven, the ceiling fan, the stairs, a wreath on the door, and the garage light, among other things. Now, she’s a happy, confident dog who knows over thirty commands, walks extremely well in heel/loose leash, and plays great with other pups at the dog park and at daycare! Her newest tricks are roll over, spin, play dead, and sit pretty. She made her parents especially proud by achieving her Canine Good Citizenship on March 12, 2016! Allie has also earned her Barn Hunt Novice title (RATN) and is now working towards Open title. Her AKC registered Canine Partners’ name is Speckled Allie Grace CA RATN CGC!!
