My raiser said "distraction training" helps me with my path to becoming a guide dog.
But I don't see how in the furry little world "ignoring" a yellow jacket (that smells like 7 cats...) is going to help with my training.
(Movie of Rudy in a down-stay with a yellow jacket sleeve hanging 1 inch above his nose... and the owner of the jacket does own 7 cats. Rudy did ignore the jacket - and doesn't even acknowledge it's there)
I think if she let me smell it... lay on it... lick it... chew it... and play with the jacket... I'd be much better off.
Whatever, at least she said "you passed that test".

Distraction training is hard - well done Rudy!
We remember having to sit in McDonalds with Clive while he had to lie down on the floor with a load of french fries on the floor around and ignore them. It was one of the last tests he had to do on our qualification week with him! It's wasn't easy - but he left the fries alone!
take care

Rudy, I'd say you're rock solid on that one!
