First IGP group session of the new year and it started really well. Lupe was an absolute gangster today and I'm so happy 🙏 His barking has improved enormously thanks to Alex's super work building him up. The heelwork has come on a lot in recent weeks too. Got absolutely soaked but it was worth it.

I recorded a podcast with the popular IGP tracking coach Lars Lentz. If you are at all interested in tracking or IGP this is definitely worth checking out. Lars has a different approach to tracking than most people and he makes some really interesting observations that often leave you wondering why you have never thought of that before! The episode is available on any of the podcast apps by searching for Dog Talk with Nick Benger. You can find it here on Spotify or find it here on Apple Podcasts
