Taryn, my first, was a sheltie - border collie mix, and a full-time training opportunity. Just remember that you're still smart enough to drive, so you're probably smart enough to train your dog. ;) As for the human end of the leash holding back the dog who has potential to achieve excellence, that's the part of training I love the most - what we learn about ourselves and how we improve as trainers because of our dogs. Sammy sounds like a wonderful training partner. Writing things down will help, believe me. I'd be lost without my notebook - since some days it's hard to remember what I had for breakfast, much less what Madison did during our last practice! Glad you found my blog, and hope it helps.

I'm glad I found this blog. And frankly, I'm going to try your old Obedience homework. *I* need that kind of structure. I also like your idea of keeping a log online. Thanks so much for sharing. My name is Mary, and my dog is Sammy, whose pedigree says he's a Sheltie, but I think he's got a lot of border collie behavior, and I'm in a little over my head. He's the 3rd of 3 Shelties I've owned, and the 4th dog. I put CDs and Agility N titles on the last two. Sammy has the ability to achieve excellence in performance, but I'm not so sure I do.
