Lucy Osborne's Puppy Training

Reno and I had a great day at Lucy's training yesterday. I couldn't believe that I knew 4 out of 5 of the other people on the course. I knew that Allison and Sue were going with Faym and Guess (even though we booked it separately without mentioning it to each other) and Kate would be there with Megan but I was really surprised to see Rae there with her new puppy, Obie. It was lovely to catch up as, due to Rae's injury we haven't seen much of each other over the past year.

Reno was probably the least experienced of all the puppies on the course, but what he lacked in experience he made up for in enthusiasm! The sequences that we did were a little more complex then Reno has been used to but Lucy had some great tips for keeping his confidence and speed up which worked really well. It was pleasing that his enthusiasm lasted for the full 2hrs because previously he has seemed to switch off quite quickly. He had a go at doing a full set of channel weaves for the 1st time and really loved them.

After the training Kate and I took Megan and Reno to a local park with Lucy and her puppy. Kate took some lovely photo's. Check out her blog to see a couple more.
