Smash's New Years resolutions

Dog Training Goals for 2007

Now that Smash is just over a year old, I expect more from him.

For 2007 here are some things I will be working with him on:

More Loyalty: I want him to come to me without being called by name.

More Exercise: I plan to let him run in the woods daily one he shows he will respond to my recall commands.

More Fun: I plan to find some fun tricks that he likes to do and work with him on them.

Of course we will be using the material we have from Sit Stay Fetch as the basis for all these goals.
