Well Darn!!

Oh I am so bummed. The new session of advance obedience classes started tonight and we had to miss the first class. :( I went to sign up for class tonight thinking that class started at 6:15 (according to the website) and the class really started at 7:30. I had to work tonight so I couldn't stick around until the class ended at 8:30. Boooo!!!

Poor Falkor was SO excited tonight too. He can tell when I get his training gear out and he was not amused when I didn't get him out of his crate in the van. So we'll start next Tuesday. Falkor will be beyond excited to find out that one of his favorite girl Danes, Greta, will be in his class! They have know each other since they were just babies and have been best buds since. Greta will also be a wonderful distraction for Falkor because he luuurves her so very much. :)

Oh poor Falkor's tail...I'm taking him back to the vet tomorrow because it looks awful. I cannot keep ANY kind of bandage on it. I am just sick about it.

Class Starts Again Next Week! Yippeee!

I have really missed being in obedience classes with Falkor this past month. There was a break between sessions and I was training for a new part time job so I missed the last couple of classes in the last session. The next session starts next week and I can't wait. I love taking classes with Falkor and I think it helps to keep me on track with training.

We did some tracking yesterday in a new field near our sub and it was the first time I aged the track more than 20 minutes. I laid two straight tracks about 75 yards each and aged them 35 minutes. Falkor was dead on the first track and plowed straight to the glove. The second track had some crosswinds and he had a little more trouble with that track. We need to practice with crosswind.

Falkor's darn Happy Tail is going to drive me bonkers. The set up for keeping his tail between his legs has been working great, but now he's licking the darn boo-boo. We've tried in inflatable, e-collar, the neck brace e-collar, the old fashioned e-collar, and every type of bitter/bad tasting spray (which he seems to think are YUMMY) and nothing is working. :(
