Teddy's First Walk and Talk

Teddy had his first Walk and Talk today and did well enough to earn his Puppy Vest! Yay for Teddy! :) He also weighed in at 43.9 pounds!

Can I ask what a walk and talk is? And do they not receive their vests right away?
Thanks

Yup! When we get our puppies we only use a bandanna (like the picture of Teddy on my side bar). They have Walk and Talks every quarter (about every 3 months) and at those Walk and Talk's it's basically like your evals with you CFR we have a RM (Region Manager). At the Walk and Talks it's a follow up with our RM and it gives us time to ask her any questions on how to do things with our pup or if we are having any problems. And it is also where the pups earn their Puppy Vest, they have to be pretty well behaved and confident and my RM usually doesn't give a vest to a pup under 5 months old. I still socialize my pup everywhere even when they don't have their vest, I just like it when they have their vest because they look more offical. :)
