Today is above my endurance; as far as heat goes but even though I would love to stay and hide inside, there is just too much to get done today since it is my only day off. This morning I went to the barn and worked with Booger, things went really well and we learned a few new things. I think a lot of Booger's "get up and go" was mainly out of fear and excitement, now that he is calming down and gaining confidence he is really slowing down and getting a little more difficult to canter and even trot so today I had to use the crop. It is a little upsetting, but I am sure we can work on it since we have all the time in the world haha, and hopefully he will be mine soon.
Around 5 p.m we are going to start getting the camper ready, hopefully it will have cooled down by then since right now it is around 90 something degrees. Unfortunately it isn't going to cool down any, tomorrow is going to storm but we will be at the shop all day. Samson is starting to challenge my patience honestly, to be quite honest I do not favor Labrador Retrievers, they just seem so neurotic and also seem very stupid. At times he shows a lot of intelligence, and then at other times I just want to release him and let him go loose so I don't have to deal him. For the first time since leaving him in the kennel and walking away, he did not start frantically barking, he actually just stood there quietly. I hate that my patience is not strong enough, and I know that I shouldn't let these things push my buttons.
