Circle work

This blog as really just a way to force me to re-examine my training goals and to stick to them, or else be shamed for all eternity on the internet. I'd like to transfer Suki to a toy for agility and increase her drive so it's back to basics. I'm starting with very short 90-120sec of circle work per day with a ball. The goal is to keep the excitement level high and to get Suki working with me, she often will not bring the toy back when doing circle work. I'm not sure why as she always brings it right back to my hand when doing standard retrieves, but hopefully I can convince her that the game stops if she doesn't bring it back. I'm not really going to worry to much about that right now though as the main focus is to keep Suki excited and end on that note. Nothing fancy here on day one. Hope to start widening the circle and adding some "s" shaped running in over the next few days.
