BASELINE CRITERIA MET: 12/18/12
Sample considered viable for hydration; will become HP (Hydrated Parent)
*3:
incorrect indicator on 2nd rep (indicated 6) and 3rd rep (indicated 5). I made the next two reps easier with the target closer to where he approached the wheel. He then proceeded to get the rest correct.
*4,*5:
Nad once in a while indicated and then quickly 'popped' up to run after a treat (did he know he correctly indicated?), he would immediately go back to the correct one and station longer.
*6:
Incorrect indicator on 5th rep (indicated 2). My personal observation was that he appeared to be getting tired. Possibly he worked harder since he hadn't done it in a while. (Last testing done 10/26/12)
