Busy weekend, with a herding lesson tomorrow - and SAR training on Sunday

And my horoscope says...

Good things come to those who remain focused on their goals. You are in a period in which progress towards realizing your goals may seem agonizingly slow in coming, or non-existent. For you the challenge is to persevere—to not allow yourself to slack off—as positive results are on the horizon.

THIS IS SO TRUE!!!!!

Well, reading this gives me a little encouragement. I have a lot of herding challenges, but one of the big ones is learning to whistle. I just posted a question on the Border Collie "sheepdog-L" asking for some advice about making the transition from practicing in my car to using a whistle in training.

The first time I tried to whistle for Ted, he nearly fell over craning his neck to stare at me, wondering 'what the heck?'

I'll remember my camera and fill you in post-lesson. It is finally warming up here and is supposed to be PLUS 4 C tomorrow in Calgary!!

On Sunday, I head up north to Edmonton for SAR practice. I am excited to show them Caden's tracking progress. Once his tracking is solid, we will begin with some real SAR work. I'll bring my camera there, too. Stay tuned!
