Gunner Board and Train day 2

Gunner had a slightly boring day. It started well. We took a long walk and worked on his radius training. He comes back solidly now but doesn't sit every time. We are working on making sure he bothers to stop when he returns and does not just scoot by in a blitz attack. We also worked his obedience in the morning and he is doing well. He made strides with the Implied Stay and with the Down. Then for a large chunk of the day he was in his crate. I had lessons in late morning and then consults in the afternoon. I made sure to take about an hour to give him lunch, potty him, and have some cuddle time in the middle of the day.
In the afternoon we worked on more obedience and he did very nicely. No real milestones but also no real setbacks.
He made my family laugh all night long. He is definitely a bit of a ham and he loved all the reactions he got. It has been years since we have had a Golden underfoot in the kitchen while we were trying to cook but we all did well. He played his part and layed in the most in-the-way spot possible and we played ours by stepping over him with a pat on the head. Unfortunately for Gunner- we have become very good at not dropping scraps and so his placement, while strategic, yielded no snacks.
Tomorrow we are supposed to get rain and I am hoping to be able to get as much work done before the thunder really gets rolling.
That's all for now.
