You were a definite second or third place in interestingness for the whole first part of the course, but you DID keep at it, and you DID keep regaining his attention to become first in interestingness at least for long enough to complete the obstacle you had asked him to do EACH time he lost focus, even if the way you asked him to do the obstacle was wrong or elegant, because it's hard to give correct signals to a dog who is not currently aware of your existence. So in my humble opinion, OVERALL, you have been 80% successful in becoming Gustavo's most interesting thing, and since that is a 79% improvement over when you got him, well you do the math. (Because you know we are both good people with the math.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21924162.post-34067801702164663982009-02-03T06:58:00.000-08:002009-02-03T06:58:00.000-08:00Yes I wore the Sporty Pants!

They are my favorite dog agility costume so two thumbs up from me. <BR/><BR/>The run was not bad so stop beating yourself up...I have at least one run that looks like that at most trials, except we never redo, just keep rolling with the chaos. I consider it a working the kinks out run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
