Reworking Errors
This morning we began to rework guide dog errors in earnest. Each mistake that our dogs made was reworked and corrected before traveling was allowed to resume. If the error occurred at an up curb of a street crossing, the error was made clear to the dog, and then traveling was resumed.
Carl is becoming much better at stopping at curbs, but will sometimes graze me past plants, or other minor obstacles. During these routs, obedience exercises are conducted, and Carl is doing very well with these as well.
Tomorrow we will begin working within buildings. I am particularly looking forward to this because it will signify the ability to work our dogs within the GDB dorm. More later.

Casey are they teaching you how to correct your own dog? By teaching you the obedience training? Sounds really interesting my little buddy.
