New Blog - Better Training

I'm not good at starting off blogs by any means, but my name is Katie, and I am the proud owner of a nice working line German Shepherd female named Danni. This blog is to update on our training progress, mostly for myself, as I tend to blab on and on about things that don't make a lot of sense to anyone else. Here's a photo of the two of us:

Anyway, right now Danni is almost two years old; she'll be two on Christmas Eve. We started training Schutzhund in February and I'm hoping to get our BH in spring of 2012. This blog will be our journey from 0 to Schutzhund III. Right now we're working on spicing up our heeling, doing our out-of-motion exercises and tightening up our recall. I'm also trying my hardest to get her out to track three times a week. We do protection twice a week. It's a fun ordeal, and I'm having a blast and learning so much along the way. She's taught me SO MUCH about dogs and about Schutzhund.
