I've had a few issues with getting Fletcher motivated and focused at training; part of it was his eye, part of it was him being in the middle of teething, but now the latter is finished and I'm more aware of the former we seem to have had a breakthrough.
My discovery of tiny pieces of cheese also seems to be a factor.
He actually follows a lure of cheese. Chunkers he goes "Pfft, screw dat" at, but cheese I can actually lure and he'll happily work for.
He lost interest in food for the last bit of our tricks class tonight, but considering that he went nuts for the toy instead and that was the first time I'd gotten more than a couple of minutes work out of him, I'm stoked.
Obedience graduation tomorrow night for Fletcher, agility and tricks next week, then he'll have a couple of weeks off to recoup from his surgery before we get back into training and start Rally One.
