ABVI studies in full swing ...

... thus the delay in posting!
Alas, now I cannot go for a simle WALK!  I am analyzing all behaviours to identify the "conditioned" CS and "unconditioned" - US - stimuli!
Intuitively I get it ... but verbalizing it all, I trip myself up!

All that to say I realize how much I was expecting the Puli to RUN before he could WALK!

Desired BEHAVIOUR 1: to stop and turn to me ("FOCUS ME") upon hearing a curt whistle blow
                                     a)to turn towards me & sit
                                     b) turn to me and lie down  (differing hand signals for each)

SHAPING necesary ... yes?!?!
