16C, no wind, light dew this morning. I laid three tracks again, we'll stay there for the next 10-14 days, as the tracks are short and straight, so not very demanding mentally or physically. I again shuffled on the tracks, laid the first food drop out about 4 paces from the scent pad to encourage Morley to move along the track on her own. Food drops after that were about every 6 steps. I didn't double back on any of the tracks the morning.

She watched me lay each track, hopped up when I unclipped her leash from the fence, and pulled me to the start stake. She starts working right away and moves out with pretty good confidence. Again, I put pressure on the leash when she did to encourage her to pull. I'm not seeing any indication from her when she finds the glove, so I'm asking her to lie down before I let her have the food in the glove. Nothing worse than having a dog blow over an article in a test!

Morley's nose is pretty funny to listen to while she's working, nearly snorting she's breathing in so hard! I think she's liking tracking!
