Not making huge progress on the ball obsession, but it&#8217;s getting better. I&#8217;m finding it a little difficult at the moment as I&#8217;ve got a 6ft square to work in and it&#8217;s a bit tight! A couple of times, Dylan or I have knocked the dead ball whilst he&#8217;s tugging and he&#8217;s not tug-focussed enough to ignore a rolling ball at the moment, which means we take a step back. Just need some more work!<\/p>\n<p>Away from the ball, I&#8217;ve been trying to be more involved at agility. I always reward Dylan appropriately, but I was really reminded at the seminar that a few lazy tugs isn&#8217;t really good enough. So Dylan now gets a proper play, with me putting in as much effort as he does. It&#8217;s exhausting for me, but his focus is improving. His Aframe was very nice at training, but I can&#8217;t say that&#8217;s necessarily from the tug work as he does like doing Aframes at training anyway. I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s making a massive difference actually, apart from making him more tuggy obsessed, although I don&#8217;t suppose that&#8217;s a bad thing!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m trying to make an effort to blog more often, I&#8217;ve really been slacking recently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been working hard on Dylan&#8217;s tug drive and ball obsession since the Rocket Relay seminar.
