Poor Sprout! I think this was her toughest ever "stay" challenge! 😂

At home and in class she can happily hold a stay for at least two minutes, but this time there was an added distraction... delicious horse poo. And, to make matters even worse, I was asking her to stay while I removed the delicious horse poo! 😋😋

It's a great example of why it's so important to practise training exercises in lots of different locations and around different distractions. Sprout knows what "stay" means, but staying put while there's horse poo nearby is a very different challenge to staying in the living room! Practising in different environments helps dogs learn to succeed even when life gets a bit more exciting.

And for anyone wondering, I only asked Sprout to stay for around 30 seconds at a time and made sure I had plenty of high-value treats ready to reward her. Admittedly, they weren't quite as high value as horse poo... but we can't have everything! 🙈😂
