w.c. 6th June

I think after yesterday's up and down training session it's definitely a continuation with the retrieves this week.

I still believe until you have a seen retrieve and delivery mastered I don't see how you can progress onto anything else?!

We have a 1:1 session on Wednesday so I'd like to try the round the clock exercise again, maybe after we've worked a while and I have Chester's focus on me.

I found on the long retrieves he tends to work better. There's less time to think about what he's doing to do with the dummy and he just runs all the way back to me. On short ones he's more likely to mess around.

I have a short term goal that there is a Herts County Fair at the end of September. I'd like to enter him into the scurry. Watch this space!
