Tracking with Jasmine

Tracking sure is fun.  I took Jasmine tracking this morning.  Jasmine is my 4 year old German Shepherd.  We have recently started a new tracking training program.  It has been pretty intense for the first couple of weeks.  I had to lay nine tracks a day for six days the first two weeks.  I am glad that I am done with that.

I have really enjoyed our time out on the tracking fields.  It is just me and her.  She has really responded well to this training system.  I basically let her figure out where the track is.  Of course I have to play the role of guiding her when there are challenges and my favorite part laying the tracks.  Actually, laying the tracks is the hardest thing to do.  I think I walked a total of eight miles laying some tracks the other day.  I also need to get a new tracking leash.  The one I currently own is nylon and it burns my hands.  Ouch!

Well let me know about your tracking adventures!
