Training
Training would start for Rick as he would get older and learn the tools of his trade. It wasn’t easy at first, he had a lot to learn. But Rick was a motivated dog with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. He really liked being given a job and felt like he was of use to someone.
Dogs really like being given tasks or things to do, it gives them a purpose and keeps them focused. Rick was always restless in the shelter because he had so much built-up energy to deal with. Now that he was in training, things were a lot better for him. He would finish with flying colors.
