"Building The Team"

I love to train my dogs and I love to teach people to train their dogs. I hope my students find as much joy being with their dogs as I find in being with mine!

TT Trial January 2011

Last weekend we had our TT trial. Started off a bit rocky for Luc and I. It was one of those rough days, migraine trying to come on, ole joints a little more sore then usual. Saturdays first run was Gamble and Luc was wild. Him and I were not together at all.
Next run was Challenge and we nailed it with a Q and 1st. That was all there was to be for the first day.
Sunday I woke up and felt a whole lot better. The day went beautiful!
Luc earned 4 Q's, 3 firsts and a second plus his Master Snooker Title.

I am working on remembering to be very conscious of my motion, when to signal the extension and when to signal the collection. My goal is for it to be subconscious movement and not to over think it consciously. At first it was mentally tiring, but I am starting to recognize the "place" I need to be to "Just Run"! .
