This is a great post. I get asked SO often when can the treats get ditched. I don't know why that is so important to people, but it's important to not get rid of them too early.

An easy yard shed hunt today. He was thrilled easy or hard!

I'm still not feeling well and unfortunately two runs each dog took it out of me. Hopefully I can sleep tonight.

I've been sick for a few days and couldn't make it to rally class last night.

So I set up a course in the yard so we could still get some practice in.

We struggled with the send around the cone, but we've only done that in the house, so I was not surprised.

The reversed heels are still a work in progress. Backing up straight is hard! More practice needed.

Overall she did well. We'll keep working on all the little we need to put it all together!

Dex has been a little naughty lately. Not following through, not staying put, being pushy. And I don't blame him. He can't have the exercise he needs right now because of his knee. I do what I can, but not running is hard for him.

So it's time to get back to some basics and refresh his memory. A really nice place. He even stayed while I went in the house for a few seconds. He knows all this stuff, but he's really pushing boundaries lately.

Dex had his second and FINAL prolotherapy injection today!

He has made wonderful progress so far. Four more weeks of on leash and then three more weeks of building up to off leash again

I'm so happy he'll be ready for hunting season this fall! Thats the one thing I would hate to have to take away from him.

We're home now and he's snoring off the sedation. 😴
