9C, heavy dew, no wind....again, great conditions for a new tracking dog. Same scenario as yesterday morning with two long tracks, run back to back. Food drops every 10 steps. Morley was very excited to track this morning, with a little whine after I unhooked her from the fence. She was very methodical on the first track and did it in a very short time, doing an automatic down when she found the glove. She didn't do this on the first glove yesterday because it was a new one.

On the second track, she spent no time at the scent pad, moved off and found the first food drop, and the second one. From that point on, she drifted about 18 inches to the left of the track, even though there was no wind. Because of this she missed most of the food drops, but continued to pull in the harness and worked the track very well. With this information next week I'll use fewer food drops, except on the tracks where I introduce a change of direction.
