I think I can relate to this kind of day too! Especially the part about your dog making you look stupid. Every dog I have ever had has had their "I never learned that command" attitude at one time or another. Dixie was the worst though when I took her to a dog show in Columbus Ohio a couple years ago. She would not do anything I asked her to do. When we were healing she just decided to stop and smell the other smells in the ring and ended up so far behind we were disqualified. We continued. She would not jump over the high jump would not retrieve the dumbell and basically acted like she didn't even know who I was! It was the longest 5 minutes in my dog career history.

I was devestated since we traveled 3 hours just to enter this show and she acted like she had no clue of what I expected from her.

Hope tomorrow is a better day!
