Welcome to training day three!
It seems I have a few things to apologize for before I start this post. First, I forgot the camera today, so no pictures today! :-( I promise I will remember it for sure tomorrow!
Second I am sorry I am doing the blog so late tonight. I have been really antsy all day and finally figured out what is wrong. Lily's last seizure was a week ago today, so I am just nervous (and I am sure that the two cups of ice tea I knocked back not too long ago helped very much since I am sensitive to caffeine!).
So anyway, today was awesome just like the other days thusfar. I will warn you however if you are in an upcoming class, you will be tired after class! I promise! I was going to skip blogging tonight but then I remembered how much I loved reading others updates when I was fund raising and/or waiting for our class, so here I am. But please bare with me. This is probably going to be riddled with typos and maybe not make much sense at times!
Ok so anyway, back to the point! Today's class was more obedience, we all learned about and received our mutt mats, we learned the commands under and bark, learned some tricks (shake, gimmie 5 and high 5), and we learned a great deal on seizure work. Tomorrow will be our first public voyage to the mall in the afternoon. I am looking forward to it with nervous anticipation! Taz will do well...it's me I am worried about! lol
Taz did real well today, between his mega naps! lol We went early so we could exercise him, then at lunch we at out in the play area so we could exercise him again. I need to keep in mind that he is a low key dog and probably doesn't need quite that much exercise. Our dog Isis is a very high energy dog and needs lots! I think tomorrow we will just exercise him in the morning and he can just chill with us at lunch. Though he does really, really likes chasing the ball!
I crated him last night at bed time but he is going to stay out tonight. He really likes his sleep and seems to love the bed so I think it should be a good night for him!
Well, I am spent and I still have to go grab our laundry (I HATE laundry!). As always, thank you for reading!!
Hollie,
ReplyDeletethanks for blogging about training (even tried!) it means so much to other families waiting for their dogs! And those of us who already have our dogs still love to read about the magic of 4 Paws!
