Pep Talk
It was BEAUTIFUL outside today – sunny and 57*. Rugby and I went to my school today (it is spring break so not too many people were there) and we set up our jumps in the parking lot and did the whole open routine. He did really well, so we packed it up and moved to the opposite side of campus and did it again. This time one of the bus drivers pulled her bus over and watched us for a good 10 minutes before finally interupting to ask how in the world did I get him to do those things?! We told her lots and lots of practice, and gave her Margot’s card for the puppy she is thinking about getting. He did his open routine even better the second time, so we packed it up one last time and took a stroll around campus practicing out of sight stays were it was convenient. Stays were good, especially since he was doing them all by himself in a place he had never been before. *Insert BIG sigh of relief*
We are leaving tomorrow morning, but we can’t forget the most important part of the pre-trial preparations to get us in the right frame of mind…
