Rollercoaster

So training has been really interesting so far.  I'm having a bit of trouble sleeping, so I'm really having problems keeping all this mass amount of information stuck in my head.  All those how love coffee and need it I urge you to bring your own to put in the coffee pots.  I really, really miss real coffee

It sounds like a lot of work, but it must be worth it!

I'm starting to understand why they have so much training involved in this adventure: they have to train you as well!

I hope it keeps getting easier from here.

Lol, the dogs are already trained when we get them. The intensity of the training does involve us learning how to work our dogs as well as bonding as a team. Guide work is a team effort and to get that you have to understand your dog well and you have to trust your dog visa versa. It's a truly amazing process.

Things get easier then you have to learn and work new things. It's nice that it's a challenge in some ways because then you don't get too bored and lose your focus.

Hi Chelle. I am sure you will have a lot of these rollercosters in class. Don't get discouraged. You're only at the beginning of training. You'll do just fine. Keep us up to date. I love hearing about your time there.

Thanks for the positive encouragement Jessica it helps a lot It's so hard to deal with the mass amounts of information overload and lack of sleep so I got to work on going to bed early opps looks like it's not going to be tonight! Sorry it so long to get back to your comment, I'm making updating my priority at the moment.
Take care,
Chelle and Maylee
