Applewoods students do 'extra credit' training over the 4th of July weekend at Bass Outdoor Pro Shop

With the heat index making the outdoor miserable for man and dog....it's time to train inside. One of Applewoods favorite places to train, during rotten weather, is the Bass Outdoor Pro Shop at Anne Arundel Outlet Mall.

Here are some pictures of students & their dogs doing some 'extra credit' training for their upcoming Week 6 Final Exam from Middle School Class.

Start with a 5 minute warm-up set of Sit/Stays @ 6'

Then, do a 5 minute Down/Stays @ 6'

Do a couple of Stand/Stays on a bench for good practice
Mix up the training by having 2 dogs to a Stand/Stay and the dog in the middle do a reverse Sit/Stay



Well, a picnic table works just as well for mixed up Stand/Stays and a Sit/Stay also!

End with another round of 3 minute Sit/Stay


All in all, another grand training day for Applewoods students and their dogs. 
 (Hopefully, they will all pass their Middle School Class Week 6 Practical Exam)
