Well, now that the weather has gotten nicer, Mom has finally started taking me out tracking again. When I saw her putting flags and gloves and CHEESE in the car, I was so excited! We went out to a campground park in the desert where we have tracked before to spend some time with Aunt Debbi, my tracking instructor, who is putting on a 3 week beginning tracking class. Of course, I am no beginner, but we thought it would be fun anyway. Mom keeps forgetting which card she is on in her tracking records so we did a couple of shorter tracks with one corner. It was super windy, but I did great! Mom is working on teaching me an automatic down when I find an article, but really I get so excited when I find the CHEESE that I sometimes forget. I will try harder though, for Mom.
Here I am modeling my tracking harness:
I really love to track! Sniffing things is my forte. I do it all the time. Even when I was done tracking and Mom let me run for a bit, all I wanted to do was track!
I am a master cheese finder.
We are going again next week and the week after, and then maybe Mom will start taking me to other parks and laying tracks for me more often. I really hope so!
