Tonight was a good night up at the NEC under the huge floodlights. The crew was setting up all the jumps in the ring for the horse show this weekend so we used the pony racing track around the outside for training. Ann came with Basco, Mark brought Cesaer and Jeanette had Nancy.
I worked both dogs with food for the first session, fus, sits and downs in drive. I had Aron on leash with the prong and corrected for anything out of position or slow, it worked out well, his food drive has been so much higher since we started tracking that he never dropped out of drive and I managed to be fast enough to stop him picking up anything from the ground.
Aron' second session was fus and drive commands with the tug and we set up one blind and worked on his revier, returning to me for the tug for a fast hit, practising for the courage test.
It was good to work the dogs with all the commotion going on around us as the guys moved the jumps, with the tractor, trucks, trailers and even dragged the race track while we worked through it.
