Once does not constitute "doing the work". Doing the work involves running
blinds, the demanding obedience portion, the track....you cannot tell what a
dog truly is through ONE bite.
The titles aren't even the important part...it's what you learn through the
training. Is the dog nervy in the bite? If he is, why? Is he pushing into
the helper, or does he need to be coddled through the stick hits? Does he
seem frantic or overly restrained in the bark and hold? Why?
It's a lot of "why's" and you don't see all of them through one session.
