Training and work

Good God there was a lot of complaining, finger pointing, and throwing people under the buss today at work. I was ducking and weaving all around it for most of the day. 5:15 came and I just left for the day, I had had enough of the toxic environment.
For the most part I enjoy my job. I just don't want to be bothered by all the BS. I just want to do my job and go home, spend time with my family, friends, and my dogs. I basically work so I can play!!!
I took Zedd over to the training building tonight. He did very well. We worked on contacts, contacts, contacts. On the a-frame I used the Rachel Sanders box and he did very well. Hit every contact no matter where or how fast I was running. He was focused on his job. I'm thinking I may need to start to fade it. I need to remember to use it in class.
The dog walk on the other hand was a little different. When I hooped the contact, he hit it. When I removed the hoop and ran the contact, he missed it. I corrected him with a shaming "oh no". No toy or food. I had to correct him one more time and then the third time I told him to "hit it" with a stern voice, and he did. We had a Hugh party with food and a squeaky toy. I gave him a break from the dog walk. After a couple of minutes of fun I took him back to the dog walk just to see if he got the message. Whoo Hoo he did. I ran the dog walk and told him to "hit it" with my drill Sargent voice, and he did. How wonderful. Big party again which he loved.
We'll just keep working at it. I want to Kick Ass at the border terrier nationals this year!!!!!
