Fiddlesticks!

Apologies for the delay in updating but we've put the more exciting clicker training stuff on hold so that we can concentrate on perfecting the things that Bran will need for his bronze award on Sunday morning.

Training is going well and it's all commands and behaviours that Bran knows very well so it is really a matter of him being in a good, focussed mood on the day.

We had training this morning and ran over all of the exercises that will be needed and Bran was as good as.....well........bronze ;o) We have a second training class tonight as Jo runs a bronze class one evening a week as well as our morning class and we'll all be taking the test together so the dogs need to meet up and get that initial excitement out of the way.

Unfortunately, I was trying to get a silly photo of Bran this afternoon posing with the car bonnet up when the dopey monkey decided to leap right up and towards the engine! I grabbed him and got him back down safely but fell awkwardly and twisted my ankle - yowch! Training should be entertaining tonight, but at least I got the photo....
