Busy, Busy, Busy

It seems like there is always something going on. Last weekend we had the Kings tournament and this weekend a demo at Friday Harbour's Dogfest. With several new dogs on the team we are happy for the chance to expose them to the competitive environment. We ran four teams at the Kings tournament and everyone had their work cut out for them. My own dog kess will drop if run in the right lane so I was able to take a break and film some of the action (Hopefully we'll have it online soon. It's always hard to know what the best training method for each dog is and often there is a lot of trial and error. Luckily there are many seasoned vetrans on the Comets able to guide the newest members through training challenges. I hope to correct Kess by running her first set in the left lane to start her out with the correct behavior, and then running her alone in the right lane while other teams run on the left. I'll let you know how it goes.
