New focus

After this intense weekend my body shut down yesterday afternoon. I had to take Becca Kick biking, she hasn’t been out for real exercise since Wednesday and both Iza and Hagel was so over loaded with energy in the body (not in soul though) that they too needed a long walk. The walk was cute short and Iza so frustrated with the black grouses that she ended up barking under a tree 🌲 for over 5 minutes. Her brain was definitely on a leave 🤪

Emma, my former obedience trainer reminded me that I have not entered any dogs for the club competition in obedience nor Rallylydnad this upcoming weekend. Hrm, I planned to just relax 😜, but all of a sudden we are going for an obedience competition 😝 So now we have to re focus on details we have postponed for months!
I have a tendency to make everything to be about hunting, even the obedience details, and that shows...

So by 8 o’clock this morning we have had 4 short practices focused on position and a faster sitting down. I guess I’ll try to continue through out the day with many short l, intense but positive and with a lot of rewards, to make the dogs 100% sure of what I want. Then we will focus on each part of the class tomorrow and Thursday and put it together on Friday, and just have fun with something else on Saturday. Competition, which is an unofficial one, isn’t until Sunday - but I had a plan to do some real competitions during the indoors season with Iza, this might be the kickoff I needed to actually focus and enter her...

Three dogs, three different styles of relaxing ❤️
