I call "Do Over"

Sigh ...

This blog is supposed to help me keep track of Larry's progress in training. So far it has shown me how lackadaisical I am in keeping to a training routine! I guess that's something, but it really wasn't what I was aiming for.


This is one of the motivational signs I have hanging on the frig. It's to remind me to work on the little details and be happy with small steps of progress. I've decided that daily notes on a blog aren't enough, since I've been getting to the end of the day with nothing concrete to note. So ...

No - not really my handwriting

Now I have something else to post on the frig. It will stare me in the face, breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snack. Hopefully next week, I will be able to post it again with marks, notes and progress. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

To translate: We will be working on heeling. Mom showed me an interesting behavior chain suggested by Susan Ailsbey that looks good, so we're going to try it for a couple weeks and see how it works. We're still working on the three finishes from Denise Fenzi's blog - I have a terrible time getting the cookie out of my hand. It's probably my worst transition point. Weavepoles are on-going entertainment and will be for a while, but we are going to start closing them down this week, but the tire looks to be trouble. "Someone" figured out that he can go under it, so back down to the floor it goes. Stays are actually up to an occasional 5 seconds (trust me, that's a lot! He's just so excited every time we're doing something structured I wasn't sure we'd ever get this far!). I'd like to get it to 10 so I can back down and add movement (mine) into the mix.
