So normally when I am at Petco, I train alone with Leon and Robert (my husband) goes into the grocery store. Now that we know Leon is going to put up a fuss when Robert is at a trial (or match) by barking, Robert is helping me in Petco by doing the things he will be doing at the trial (video recording, observing, and being around without being with Leon).
Luckily the Petco staff in Portsmouth NH on Market Street is super nice and helpful. So I could let Leon try out his whining and barking, and realize it is not going to get him up from a command to see Robert (this has been a problem that has cropped up away from the home training grounds--beach, yard, and other training places that we use in York).
Here is a clip of our at least weekly routine at Petco to get him ready for his matches in March and trial in April.
