P3

Gosh, I can't believe that it has been so long since I last posted anything about the Tobsters. To catch everyone up to date. Last night was our first P3 class. I have to say, Toby did absolutely wonderful. His stays are really starting to rock!. His toy drive is just out of this world. The instructor was extremely impressed with how much toy drive this big guy has now. It was a very very good night. However, I felt a little lonely out there. Both of my friends and their puppies are doing a puppy agility class on the same night so they are not in this class. I know we will be OK walking this road alone. Its just that it was exciting to see them once a week and now I will only see them here and there. But at least they are were they need to be and I am OK with that! Those puppies are worth it! I can say that now that my friends are in a different class Toby has moved to being the Best dog in the class. I know I prejudice!

I just got done working with Toby on his homework. He just loves doing homework! It is getting to be a lot of fun for me as well. We worked on Drops, rights, lefts, around, targets. I know that was a lot to work on but as long and Toby and I were having fun I wasn't going to stop. We worked inside the house for a while and then we went out side. I was in the back and when Toby got distracted by a car going down the alley and run over to see, I ended the fun. Play with me or we don't play at all. Tough love.

Thursday night Toby and I will head off to basic obedience class. I think that this class has helped the most. I love hearing " don't let him get away with that" This is helping me see just what I am allowing Toby to get away with and helps me stop his neurotic behavior. I guess most Shelties have some type of neurotic behavior that needs to be stopped. All in a day of a Sheltie! Got to love them!
