Horrid night at dog class :(

[Cookiebaker]

Thank you everyone for the encouragement!!! I'm printing this thread out to hang on the refrigerator for those "bad" days. We have kept working with Malone throughout the week and I wasn't noticing any improvement really. However, at Dog class last night, he was MUCH better!!! He had a couple "moments" but he really did heal nicely, and wasn't so obstinant.

I think part of it is that we are trying to teach him to many things at once. Everyweek, we have 5 new things to work on and there isn't enough time to get even 2 of them down pat. I can sense that he gets confused, and then frustrated and then I get frustrated. So I have started taking notes on all the things that we should be accomplishing, and I think I will work on 2 or 3 areas at a time, instead of everything at once.

We only have two classes left, but I'm really thinking of taking this course again.

I'm glad to hear that he was much better this week
Taking the class again would be great for him I think. I took Roxey to many of the same classes because they didn't have any others around here, she just loved going!
