Checking in a lot earlier today. Came home before 7 and went down to practice shooting for about 1hour before coming home. After I finished dinner I had a pretty short training session with Bean (10-12min) and then fed him dinner. By the time he was done, he followed me around for a bit then went into his crate to sleep! So he's in bed at 930pm which I'm just extremely happy with! He's energy wasn't that high and it may be because my sister came today and gave him attention so his so much more calm today. Maybe tonight I can get him to wake up and pee at 12am then I can sleep for a longer stretch. Let's see!
I can't wait for the weekends though. I feel like I need to catch up on some sleep. How do parents do it? Bean isn't even that tough to manage at night and I feel especially tired already. It really is a good learning process. Looking forward to have the trainer come over next wednesday so that she can give me even more pointers to guide Bean to be an obedient dog. I really want to bring him out to walk soon, but at the same time he has to learn how to follow my lead.
Please let this be a good year. The energy has been low for too long.
I do see a little hope this year though.
