I have spent some time thinking about goal setting and realize what I made was a to do list not goals.  Funny enough this has been rolling around in my head since I wrote out the to do list a few days ago and then yesterday John Cullen's blog was about the difference between goals and a to do list.

This morning my to do was to work on retrieving after the jump.  I find that Iggy's retrieve is not as strong as I would like.  My goal is that every time he picks up the toy he instantly runs back to me.  Solution:  I need to start running away every time he gets the toy, right now I am only doing it once in a while.  Let's say for the next three days every time I throw the toy I need to run away regardless if it's with a jump or by itself.

This morning we did one rep of tunnel at about 75% of full length, 2 restrained recalls at about 150 feet and 2 270s the first one he went by the second jump, I am sure I am not turning my shoulders when this is happening on the 2nd rep I started a front cross and he had no problem.
