 of your dog in training. After the evaluation the dog will go through a private lesson
 to develop his confidence. On completion you will be advised on how to develop the
 dog at home or you may leave the dog at MNK9 for the foundation training.
 
 Foundation Program 7 day

 The foundation Program is an extension of the evaluation, the dog will be exposed to a
 professional decoy to raise his suspicion level and confidence. The dog will be
 agitated from a distance and from behind a fence with experienced dogs in other
 kennels. As the dogs drive and confidence increases he will then be worked on lead
 with a handler to develop further. The confidence and strong suspicion level
