A nice track today with Rosemary & Reece

One of our lovely local fields to train in again. Lush, thick and wet growth, almost too difficult to walk through for smaller dogs and short-legged people (me!). I put down a long "tophat" (TD) track today for Reese. It was aged 50 mins. and some drizzle began just as she started.
As you can see, Rosemary is doing a really nice job with her line-handling and reading Reese well at corners. Reese has changed so dramatically in the last few weeks and just works steadily, nose down, on her track.
Rosemary is right on the corner, and about to follow Reece. She had overshot a little, straight ahead, and just finished circling back and beginning to pull along the track.
Here they are moving quickly, at a nice steady pace, along the last leg toward the article.
And there it is! Reece just plopped down on her article, waiting for Rosemary to come up. Very nicely done!
