Oriole, the little Bichon Frise male, graduated from our FINE-TUNED CANINES' Board and Train program in Florida! Congratualtions "little man"!:) 

Oriole's new achievements (he learned everything you see in these 2 movies during the 2 weeks he stayed at FINE-TUNED CANINES Board and Train dog training camp in Florida):

Oriole's new achievements include learning how to:

• walk properly on a loose leash without pulling
• heel off-leash
• come when called
• be polite and well-mannered in various situations
• be quiet and not bark, squeak and vocalize all the time
• have nice manners at the door (and remain quiet when the door bell rings)
• enjoy exercise and use a treadmill (Oriole absolutely loves it now and cannot wait to jump on it and trot)
• go to a place on command
• go to a crate on command
• stay on command (including a long stay when he cannot see a handler)
• do some fun agility exercises such as hoop jumping and obstacle jumping, jumping up on a place, etc
• play some new fun games
• be well-mannered in public places with lots of distractions (smells, noises, people, other dogs), etc.
• feel confident about himself
• feel relaxed and confident around his newly adopted "brother" (a Labradoodle)

Oriole also enjoyed socializing in public places and also with other dogs.Oriole snoozing in a car....He used to be very anxious in a car...

He stayed with us longer after his Board and Train to work on some anxiety issues (including car anxiety) and he did wonderful with that as well! Here's a photo and a short movie clip showing Oriole in a car after we worked on his car anxiety:

We are really thrilled that we were able to assist this sweet, affectionate, gentle, loving "little guy" in developing his skills and potential (he's got so much potential!). We're gonna miss this little one and we're wishing him and his fantastic family many new successes!
