🐺 Things that we did well:
1. His indications were good overall. I gave him more line, and I think he mostly stayed on track. I also extended his food drops to 10 steps. He struggled a bit but returned to the track after I asked him to "search" again. I'll need to remember not to point at the track.
🐺 Things that we need to work on:
1. Skyler was really distracted and wanted to sniff elsewhere. I think I'll give him about 15-20 minutes next time to satisfy his sniffing needs before working.
2. I will lay an article track next time to work on article indications.
3. I need to plan out my tracks better. I rushed to lay my tracks again and realized that two of them were too close together at one point—about 5-8 yards apart. Skyler saw the glove on the other track and wanted to get it, so I had to point him back to the track he was working on.
