What? Me? Obsess? 🤣
No , I gotcha. My plan was for us to put this to bed for a but and focus on the handling part this week.

oh funny!! Well, since I’m not spaying Roulez, who knows? Maybe another puppy in the near future wouldn’t be such a bad idea.
We had a great time at the trial. Almost had a QQ yesterday but she dropped a bar, which is unusual for her. I have looked at the video and can’t see (or hear) anything I might have done to cause it . Maybe it was just one of those things.
Audubon had a few short good play sessions with puppies about his age. Very proud of him, because he recalled back to me in the midst of play and then I released him back to play after a reward. I was very choosy about when I recalled to up our chances of success.
the session was split in two with ball/frisbee and free dog play in between. That being said, you are right. It was too much. This all reminds of that saying – just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. I forget he is so young and I lose track of time. My best bet is to set a timer. I had forgotten that I did that with Roulez.
This weekend we had an agility trial– I made sure to keep our training sessions short and included some fast and furious fun.
Thankyou!!
so my note I submitted last night didnt.. heading out to a show so will write tonight
Have a great day!!
ps: yes, the WEC is awesome!Thanks Tracy . yes, Tchoup was a consequence of a lazy trainer.
We’ll use these suggestions on our next session.

Sorry Tracy– It’s a long video bit we kind of struggled with a few things this session so I did little editing. By the end, I was happy with how I was able to get him to switch between food and toy.
Th I did not realize I was saying go in front of tunnel and jump. It is only to be used for her to drive ahead on straight lines.. I’m trying to clean up my verbals and reward markers. Thank you for pointing it out

Totally get it! The last few days we worked on Project Unpairing. For the most part, I did better in isolating the verbal release and movement.
“love how both you and Jamie were looking up at the sky on the first disconnection rep LOL!”
we were both trying our hardest to be disconnected- hahaha“The biggest and best moment on the video was at 2:41 when you were saying jump but she was facing and looking at the tunnel…. but then stopped herself (“wait, I think the momma was NOT saying tunnel!”
I KNOW!!! I got so excited I forgot to do anything but she was THINKING!! YAY!!
Today we worked the Week 1, Handling 2 combos. Tomorrow morning I plan to work the sitting discrimination.
We are going to be spending some time making more deposits in our stay bank. Crazy how it can all fall apart so easily.
