Scenario 1: You are walking a dog for Mrs Smith, when you are approached by a neighbor asking why you are walking Mrs Smiths dog. The neighbor appears to know the dog and the dog seems happy to see the neighbor. How do you respond and what do you do?

Scenario 2: You enter a home to walk, Missy, a pit-mix dog. You have been told that the dog has anxiety and is nervous with strangers but typically warms up quickly. The lead walker on Missy’s team was supposed to meet you at the house to introduce you, but she had an emergency come up and asked you to meet the dog on your own. You are given the lock box code to get into the home. When you enter, Missy comes running, but when she sees that you are not her regular walker, she reacts. Missy backs up, pulls her ears back, barks loudly and her hackles are raised. As you take a step closer, she takes a step back, lowers her head and begins to wag her tail which is raised very high. Her body is tense and it is clear that she is uncomfortable in the situation. How do you proceed?

All of our staff are required to do regular ongoing education through our online education center- do you have reliable access to a working computer and internet to do this (typically 1-2 hours a month is required)?
