the Good:

1. Last weeks training sessions went very well for both dogs even though we only did two days excluding class.
2. Our Weave Pole was started last Sunday at Roche Park! It was a major success! I brought 2 jumps. Chloe wasn't phased by the location (baseball diamond). We did have a crowd. Footing wasn't that great for me but her it seemed fine as the grass and ground was still wet. It was like a marsh in someways.
3. Our camcorder, HV30, should be here on Wednesday
4. Relaxation Protocol exercises for Room 2 are done.
5. Scout's sensitive stomach syndrome is over thanks to Cuturelle.
6. Knees and fasiciitis got better.
7. Thinking about attending a run through coming up in June in Buffalo.

the Bad:

1. Scout's anxiety and excitement is really bad when going to the park (took nearly 30 minutes to settle down if you can call it that) and when in the crate. I have discussed my training and behavior experiences on the CU list and I told that it might be best to put him on medication so training can continue. We're stilling about it and also another alternative the Gentle Leader. You can litterally watch him build himself up and getting into a frenzy especially in the crate.
2. Chloe was completely spooked by the teeter in class yesterday. Denise thinks is the location because she moved it and aimed towards the barrier. She did manage to get back on it several times after class.
3. Setting up a PVC-based weave pole system blows! I need to get a 3.5" base set.

 the Ugly:

1. Sore knees and fasiciitis is back
2. The roofers are here this morning and noise is everywhere. The noise got both dogs on-guard and barky. Chloe settled down after 5 minutes and Scout about 45 minutes on and off.
3. I put gas in the FJ yesterday after class.
4. It is going to rain majority of the week!
5. Scout is chasing his tail - not a good sign.
