Progress is better then nothing

So today wasn't the most productive day. I had a final interview at Hooters to see if I would be hired or not. So I had to figure out a plan on working Lillith, Max, and Ellie. Lillith wasn't to bad we pretty much did Open work minus the retrieve being as her owners never bothered to teach her. It would have been more productive if the high jump was available haha. I did the broad jump and began the bar jump both her successful. Lillith and I worked on run thrus while waiting its slowly occurring to her that I'm way funner to work with then her owners. Max and I did a bit of work not as much as I would have liked but its better then nothing at all. His sits are getting better and better every day. He is one smart pup not like any Shih Tzu I've heard of Eric should be proud ^_^. Ellie and I only managed to work on her retrieve and finishes. I need to figure out what to do about her fronts on the recall because on everything else she is okay but when I do a recall she shoots straight to me then all of a sudden she starts swerving to the right and I see it and I tried signs but all I can do is block her and lead her to front. I'm going to try this idea Sam had, make a open tunnel and call her through it. That I hope solves the problem because its one less thing to worry about. Our pace changes need work the normal and slow are okay but fast is crap all she is doing is a fast walk. I know how to fix it but her ecollar is dead so all I can do is leg corrections its working a little but not enough to get my point across. I know she is trying her best to please me I just wish we had some telepathy or canine human ESP so I can figure out what the hell is going through her head. Our jumps are getting better I'm hoping to get this perfected by the end of August. Ellie did very well in her retrieve work in the semi tall grass I say semi because was tall enough that she could see the dumbbell but still made her really look for it. I think she enjoys the work at the end of the day now because if were in sync then she wants to be as good as Rugby :) gotta love the little troupers haha.
