We're doing the CGC test with Rupert this evening.
We did a practice test at our last dog class a couple weeks back, have practiced the tasks since then, and did a couple run throughs last night to the extent we could.
He did pretty well at the different tasks. The ones I'm most worried about are accepting a stranger, being pet by a stranger, and being groomed/inspected.
He loves people and is a bit of a jumper, so I'm midly concerned he will get out of position or slobber all over the petter's hand. I'm gonna tire the hell out of him before the test so that will help a bit.
Does anyone have any last minute tips on taking this thing? And advice would be greatly appreciated.
