Great job last night at the very first dog training session! Here is what you should be working on this week: 10 second sit-stay, 30 second down-stay, and a 10 second stand-stay. You should also practice heeling. Your dog should be able to walk 10 steps with you on a loose lead. That means you shouldn't be jerking or pulling your dog along! If you were unable to make it to class and are not sure how to teach your dog these commands, please e-mail me and I will do my best to help you.
Also, according to my room reservations, we will be in the Bison Room again next week, but after that we will meet in the 4-H Hall. I know it is a tight squeeze to have all those dogs, kids and parents in the Bison Room, but we will make due.
Work hard this week. It only takes a few minutes of work each day to make a huge difference.
