Hello folks!
Long time since last update now, but I've been busy. Ended up at the clinic for my eating disorders again, so now I am slowly going back to eating, next week might be huge change in my food portions so we'll see what happens after that...
Last week, 19th of July, me and Zorro participated in a Working Test here at Gotland. And to be honest, for not training much at all I believe we did pretty great even if we "just" got 18/100 points. But I am very proud over how Zorro acted in this new kind of enviroment and that he didn't take off as soon as they had fired the gun. He also worked quietly during the entire test, even if he whined and felt totally unfocused between the four small stations that the test was divided in. But now I at least know what to practise more on and I am more than willing to give it another shot next year!
Today I also went to Ala for some fetching training with three others from the Gute Toller group. Zorro did awesome, and we're continuing our work with the duck. I still have hope of someday competing or at least participating in a real Tolling Test with all kinds of animals to fetch.
