Shaping

 We did shaping for two days with Pearl. It took a total of 57 minutes to fully shape her. She originally had struggled to place both hands on the lever. We started by training her to become close to the lever. We worked her to get one hand on top and started to not give her treats unless both hands were on the lever. Getting Pearl to put both of her hands on the lever was a bit of a struggle at first. She would not be very consistent with the two hands on the first day at all. This was very similar to the practice training we did in class. It took her a while to fully understand what we were trying to have her do. 

This day was exciting because I got to introduce Pearl to my best friend on facetime!
