Training For Treats

Hi ya!  Cutty here!  So I’m doing this new thing called training instead of racing and let me tell you it’s pretty cool.  My days are filled with treats, training, playtime, love, and did I mention treats?   I love the start of a brand new day!  I run around the prison greeting everyone, 2-legged and 4-legged, like they’re lost friends and we’ve finally reunited for the first time in years!  My inmate trainer says he loves to see me so happy. 

My inmate trainer and I do short training sessions throughout the day.  He says that I need shorter sessions because I day dream and lose focus.  There are just a lot of things going on that need my attention or that need to be thought about!  I don’t let this hamper my ability to learn though.  I’m already doing really well with all my basics and continue to improve every day!  I have let’s go, kennel, release, and heel down pat.  My trainer says that I need to respond a little faster to hurry, wait, here, sit, down, stay, bed, jump, kiss, bow, and belly.  No worries though I got this!
