Rally On

Hi All,
Due to matters beyond Baron's control, he missed a couple of Rally classes, thus retaining his "worst in class" rating.  This is the rare moment when Baron can't be blamed for his difficulty.    Unfortunately, it is the result of handler error.  The good news, is that the instructor has given up on us (mostly me) and lets us try our best to follow the course.  Baron loves it.  He doesn't know that his handler (OK - that would be me) has difficulty determining right from left.  He thinks he is doing a great job; a thought process I reinforce.

I have to admit it was a little nauseating when the woman with the papillion demonstrated her dog's "free dance."  I have never heard of free dance, but judging by the dog's ability to twirl on command and do several figure eights between her handler's legs (also on command), it seems to be something that is not in Baron's (or his handler's) future.
Our last class is Tuesday, an evening I am eagerly anticipating.
All for now,
Botswain
