Don't jump ship!

There's a rule that I often break in training. I know better...however, I don't DO better. When you go into a training session with a plan, you are supposed to stick to the plan. You don't change the plan mid-plan. Well. I Did.

I know in my last post I said I was going to teach Kurth to spin and that I had some time. This wasn't at the top of my list of things to do. Then I caught him chasing his tail in his crate and decided to capture it. I was supposed to be working on sit. But no. There I was, jumping ship, taking the spin. All I can say is that Kurth is now a very capable spinner, but his sit is lagging. And all I can think of is this training session that I had with Angie and Gabor in which Gabor was just moving, moving, moving and Angie was just trying to figure out how I could get anything done with the mess I'd created. (I managed, but a mess it was!)

I promise video soon.

I'm going to go work on sit and down right now. Really. Or this could get very, very complicated!
