We had the first class in another session of earthdog on Sat afternoon. Spot loves going there. He is like a rat-seeking missile! We have been working on the "Recall" portion of the Senior test. In the Senior level, once the dog works the rats, they remove them from the tunnel, and the handler calls the dog to them and has to grab them within 90 seconds I think it is. Well, Spot has been backing out through the long tunnel, which he wasn't too happy doing. But on our last practice, he figured out that he can turn around at the first corner and come out head first. Yay Spot! He's also been very good about letting me grab him and get the leash on before we go look to see where the rats went. I'm very confident he'll get his Senior Earthdog title this summer.
