Day 10: Suck it Up and Train

It was a beautiful sunny day; so despite the fact that I'm plagued with a flu like illness, I sucked it up and went out to train. I guess my thought is that I'm sure there are days when Fred just doesn't want to, but he still does it for me; so I owe it to him.

We headed down to the pond and Kevin set a few time and space delay blinds which went smoothly. I then had him set one while Fred couldn't see at all in a similar area to the time delay ones. I then heeled Fred to a different area of the pond and sent him for the mark. The video is hard to see because it was so sunny; but the important part is that I spent probably a minute getting him lined up perfectly. I am starting to learn that taking this extra time is absolutely worth it!

I think that we are making good progress in a short amount of time. We are only 1/3 of the way through so there is much more work to be done; but with the right steps in place, the next 20 days should be a blast!!
