Tracking

It was a good morning down at Southside, a bit of a breeze. Ann brought Basco, Kay had Loki out.

I wanted to move forward with Aron's tracking so I did two shorter tracks with a 135deg corner. I also tried using the counter rythmn to modulate his speed with the leash on the fursaver under his shoulder. Both worked quite well. He worked thoroughly and came to a stop on the corner, sat for a second on the first attempt, searched for the track with his nose and turned the corner and continued along to the end. There were only two sections with 4 peices of food on the whole track and some at the end.

Madison ran a long track with 2 90deg corners, She also only had 2 sections of 4 pieces of food. She got a bit frantic without the food, but settled and worked through it after a "No" ... "Such".
