With the regrettable passing of Steve Jobs it has led me to wonder what Steve would have been like if he had been a dog trainer. You often hear people say that we should be singing from the same hymn book, well I don't think that Steve would have done this as he was the type of person who thought outside the norm to solve problems and invent new ways of achieving his goals. And training dogs is the same, you cannot afford to simply say that training methods of yesterday are better than today, Apple would have gone broke on that theory.  The harshness of yesterdays training thankfully gave way to better and kinder training methods of today. Steve changed this world with his products and he has also assisted in the training of dogs through the iphone and ipad2, he just never knew it at the time.

On to todays training. It was humid but cool which made for interesting tracks watching just how the dogs handled the humidity.

Just about on the go

Finishing in the park.

 All three dogs put in a great performance but I do think that our track layer put in a better performance as they were not feeling too flash with a tummy bug. The end result being that he have two wonderful dogs closing in on obtaining and passing their assessment to enable them to go live.

RIP

Steve Jobs
