Good questions

Before you begin.

Will my dog seem different?

Often, yes. Dogs sort habits by place, so expect some adjustment.

Who should be at the handoff?

Everyone who handles the dog.

What if my dog ignores me at home?

Go back a step, reduce distractions and use higher-value rewards.

Is regression normal?

Yes. It is a signal to return to the plan, not a failure.
