I used to have to work at 6:15am but there is no way I ever motivated myself to get up at 5 to train before work!!! Even now when I don't have to be at work till 9 I haven't been able to do it!<br /><br />I also find that training with distractions on the floor really improves our heel work. It seems like once the dogs get it they work even harder to maintain a nice heel position. Most of the time I release them to go get the treats once they're in a good position and looking at me.<br /><br />I find that the monthly goals really help me to stay on track. They aren't too often that I feel stressed to get it all on, but yet soon enough that I better do something. I hope it helps you!Laura and The Corgi, Toller, & Duckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06437492165453445126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4738086884148295840.post-90706860791748875032010-06-30T20:59:35.839-07:002010-06-30T20:59:35.839-07:00Sometimes just having a plan helps a lot!
