Morgan's Training

Well it has been a while since I posted. I cannot believe how long it has been and I am wondering what I've done since my last post. On June 6 and 7 I was at an obedience trial with Merlin who bombed both days. I know I did training on June 9, 10, and 11. She went for a bath at Caroline's on June 12 and I picked her up on the 13th. We trained on the 14th. Last week, we trained just two days. I took her the third day but I was so late getting there, it got too hot to work.

Miss Morgan can now run to her crate from about 40 feet. She sits when I put my hand on the door although this is not as automatic as I would like it to be. I've been mixing up her other training a little too much to see much progress so I'm going to have to pick out a few things to work on until I get her to feel really confident in them and then add on to her repetoire.

Today, we did crate training, broad jump, attention, sit stay, and front. I will put her schedule together for the next few days. We head to Savannah on Friday for yet another trial for Merlin. I decided not to enter her in pre-novice because we really do not have heeling together before we do anything anywhere else but home. I hope to get in some training while in Savannah but the excitement of a trial will make it a challenge. The doggies will have a week off starting next Monday as I am visiting my parents for a week and they cannot have dogs.

That's all for today. I'll be a little more organized tomorrow, I guess.
