Mock Drill – Also called a Pet Therapy Try-It Session
This event is held at Forest Shadows Pet Resort and sponsored by Pets With A Mission, PWAM, previously known as Montgomery Pet Partners.
Your dog must know basic obedience such as sit, stay, down, come when called, leave it, walk on a loose leash, not jump on people, and be potty trained. These commands do not have to be perfect. Your dog must be at least 11 months old. During the Mock Drill, we will explain the registration process and practice required skills with your dog. After you have completed a Mock Drill, you will receive a “ready”, “ready with work”, or “not ready”. You must receive a “ready” or “ready with work” before you will be allowed to test/evaluate. You can attend as many Mock Drills as you want. In fact we encourage our renewing teams to practice before they test/evaluate. All our Mock Drills are complementary. To register for any of the Mock Drill’s below, send an email with the words “Mock Drill” in the subject line, along with your name, your dogs name, age and breed, your email address and a telephone number to Info@PetsWithAMission.org.
