Red face Back to Open Class

Hi all,

Parker and I went back to Open Classes tonight after a long sabbatical. Our attendance in the Spring was sporadic to say the least due to overtime at the office. I took the summer off.

So we went back tonight. We've been doing a little bit of work on our own, non-structured, only high praise, and short-term sessions.

Well tonight I'm very proud to announce that Parker retrieved over the jump for the first time, retrieved on the flat in a formal setting for the first time and heeled beautifully! I was SO proud of him, he was bang on.

We did have a down in our long sit, but I have a feeling he was tired from having classes both last night and tonight. It's not an excuse - I'll work on it through the week. I think he also needs to have some muscle conditioning as well as he slowly went down (over to his hip, head drooped, legs slowly went out). I'll get it back.

Parker was the wonder dog tonight.

Trish, often after a long break, dogs will come back stronger then they have ever been before. It really freshens thier minds and brings that newness and fun back to working!!
