What a day.

Its been a crappy day. I wont go into why , Ill just leave it at that. Its always good to come home to dogs that are just so happy to see you. That always lifts the spirit.
Yesterday I took Miley to the park to work handling. We did front and rear crosses. She did really well in that she read everything right and I even got some distance in. The only thing was she was almost always in extension and jumping to long for the turn that was coming. I know that I must not be giving the cue soon enough but I couldn't seem to fix it. I'm going to take a lesson on Monday, so hopefully Meagan can see what I'm doing wrong.
Now today I did just did a few runs with the weaves. And I'm just amazed. I know I keep posting video but I just cant get over how things have changed. She just couldn't do this last week and now, WOW! I need to get video of her going in on the other side of the weaves.

Also if you get the J and J dog supply catalog, Mileys in there in the teeter section.

Guiness and I are still working on the freestyle stuff. The instructor has set up a show and go for freestyle and wants us to come up with a dance with our dog. I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'm no were near ready to start doing that. Hmmm

That really is amazing. You've inspired me to try some more difficult weave entries.

That means, I have Oreo entering from various bedrooms, since our weave poles are set up in the hallway! Too cold to be outside. LOL. Hey, we do what we gotta do...

I think the best part is when Guiness comes in from behind and does weaves right in back of her! :)
