It is now day three and I can honestly say that I am very impressed with the progress the kids and their parents are making. The transformation is amazing.
These are people who on the first day were apprehensive to take the leash, and now are taking on the obstacle course with confidence.
At one point Cortney, who is often very quiet said, "Just calm down mom, I got this." (evidenced by the fact that mom is not the pictures)
This is just one example of the incredible changes that have been in these past three days and believe me, there is a lot more to come. Everyone is doing very well, so keep up the good work!
As for the synopsis of the day, it was more of the same, but with a twist: This time the obstacle course was riddled with distractions. In between the obstacles was food that the participants had to keep the dog they were working away from while still getting them to do commands.
In the end it was a fantastic day and I'm so exited to see where it goes from here.

Thanks to Casablanca for providing today's lunch at team training. :)
Just a little side note...today while they were outside observing dog behavior, the sky opened up and poured rain on people and dogs alike. So everyone got a chance to experience for themselves that special 'wet dog' smell!
