Tired of Training?

Someone asked me today if I ever get tired of dog training, of doing the same things over and over, day in and day out.

"You've got to be kidding!" I yelled out spontaneously, as I caught myself in mid-air almost falling off my bike. The dog I was running stopped, looking as though the comment startled him equally.

Each dog is a distinct individual, with its own personality, hang-ups, and preferences, and clearly with its own pace of learning. As with people, the way a dog feels each day is different. Every day is an adventure, and every time you encounter a dog, you learn something new. I love it!

Oh, and the answer to the question: "NO, I do not!"
