Training Strider

Training Strider to Stay.
Last training class did not go well!  He seemed to forget what he already knew.  I know it wasn't Strider because he is a smart dog.  I was not spending enough time with the training and  I had been out of town during which his  training had stopped for over a week and he missed a class.

He gets bored with STAY and chews on his leash but Oh Well, he did STAY!
The other dogs were way ahead of him in class!!
Practice Cone!  I spend a lot of time saying "No, leave it!" as I set them up.
So I have been working hard with him since his class on Tuesday.  We just started "heel" which is important to me.  And he is doing very well.  I am working on STAY also.  And back to SIT.

I have a great training yard though!
It takes an unbelievable amount of time to train a dog!!
I have a lovely view of my flowers while we work.
And he likes to train!
