(1) What is answer 1 to your EQ? Be specific in your answer.
I believe that the first answer to my essential question is that you need consistency in training.
(2) What possible evidence do you have to support this answer?
When I attend puppy classes and meetings, I have observed that the guide dog raiser is constantly giving their puppy a job to do, by job i mean a command ex: sit, down, quiet, stay, ect. By always having the dog perform a job, this will keep your puppy in control and will get him used to following commands the first time they are given.
(3) What source(s) did you find this evidence and/or answer?
I found this evidence from observation and from my puppy hand book. In my puppy handbook it says, at the very minimum, that i should be giving the puppy 20 repititions of the same command, so through out the day i should be practicing one command over 20 times.

Blog 12: Service Learning
Where are you working for your service learning?
For now i am observing different puppy age group classes at Guide Dogs of America every saturday.
Who is your contact?
I need to ask my puppy leader who is in charge of roll for the classes.
Summarize the services you have performed to complete the 10 hour requirement.
I have not yet completed the 10 hours, as of now I only have 2 hours. During the Saturday classes i am there as an observer, and while i was there i learned valuable information for puppies of different ages. I learned how to properly care for a puppy's teeth, how important it is for a puppy to respond when their owner calls them and that our puppy will go through behavioral changes as they get older.
