Obedience Improvement

I worked Bern yesterday evening on his dumbbell retrieves and drop inside the house. He retrieve is more stable on the hand signal than it was on the voice command so I'm sticking with the signal. And, wonder of wonders, Bern actually crashed to the floor in a REAL attempt at a drop. This morning we did the broad jump before breakfast... with Grace assisting Bern nailed the broad jump on the second attempt. He seems to be remembering the Open exercises since we have been practicing them consistently the last week or so...may it come together before Saturday!
