Getting Organized

Over time it's easy to let training logs and schedules fall by the wayside as a group falls into a comfortable pattern. Then something comes along and reminds you that they were a good idea. We've given our practices a spring cleaning and developed all manner of organizational aids, which so far have really helped keep things moving. We shaved an hour off of our practice time while still allowing everyone to work their dogs both individually and in line-ups. Switching to the schedule has also helped get everyone on the team focused on solving training issues with individual dogs and we're really starting to see some results.

All of the new dogs are progressing well and will compete as one team at the next tournament. It should be lots of fun and will give them a chance to show what they can do.
