Thanks Par,

My main goal this weekend is just to have fun and hope that Smudge gets his contacts that's the one thing that is constantly stopping us from getting a q

My friend has a theory for the verbal commands she thinks that it takes a dog a couple of years to actually learn the verbal commands for pieces of equipment and they mostly go off your body languge until then. I have to agree with her because I constantly screw up the name while running on course and my guys still take the piece of equipment. In fact there are times when in classes we make the students run the course without verbal commands except for praise and maybe a side change command just to prove that point and 9 times out of 10 I don't use a verbal on a course like jumpers or tunnlers becuase really what's the point of repeating "jump" or "tunnel" when that's all the course is?
