I had mocha out on some training and we tried him on cold game.  I was a bit nervous that he would not bring it back but he was great.  We set up a the exercise along a fence on the left and about 2 foot from the fence set up temporary netting.  This is to ensure that the dog can only run back to you and not bolt with the prize.  He was very excited to see the bird and rather than expecting him to sit steady while a throw the bird down the tunnel I put him on the lead and he was chomping at the bit to go.  I will work on the steadiness in the next session, it was important to me that he did actually want to pick up the game.  He ran in picked it up with no messing about I blew the recall whistle and he ran straight back down to tunnel and presented the bird.  I was so proud. 

We did one more retrieve and finished on a high.  ;) like its that easy!!

Notes for next time get him steady.
