Team Practice 2/28

Zio spent much of the practice running recalls next to the team's other dogs. He tended to stray toward the other lanes at first, but he had to keep running recalls until he had run against all of the other dogs and not thought about chasing.

We ran a few box turns with props and he was doing okay. Si let me bring one of the boxes home and we practiced this afternoon as well. I've had to put the cone back in to get him to do a turn again instead of punching the box. He seems to remember again, but I'll leave the cone about 6-8 feet from the cone until he "gets it" again.

Full Speed Ahead's two teams have been placed in the same division for the Saturday races on March 13. That may cause some logistical problems, since we have team members that run a dog on each team.
