Here is last nights practice. The tunnel threadle with sequencing was not happening at all. She did remember it when we broke it down, but wasn’t convinced enough to do it within a sequence😊. I think Annalise was a tad late a few times also.
They ran through the two mid course sequences and rocked them

Prytania came over after school today to play! We both read the feedback and tried to implement your great suggestions 😊! She did get a third try one time because Annalise begged so nicely! Haha, you’ll hear the hesitation in my voice! Her turns were super short. Not more than 1.5 minutes I think 😊. She did really well. Susan was gone for the first sequence and came back for the second. She was arranging a mat on the aframe and you can see it threw her off for a minute or two!!!
Sequence one https://youtu.be/hDQDEhPYwtY?si=pwsEwGL4DSqarFiD
Sequence two https://youtu.be/q0EGHrsv2Pw?si=kjwx-B1Bur2HpaUG
Prytania attended our trial and did a super job on staying focused around the ring! Her biggest distraction is people. She could care less about what those silly dogs are doing in the ring!!!
She’s going away with us this weekend and Annalise is going to have lots of opportunities to work on the engagement games!

Sequence 4 proved tricky for team Prytania! She got to practice this with a fellow max pup participant Paula and Pizazz!!! Great mini class environment.
One issue they are facing is when a mistake is made, it though it is rewarded I think she has some fallback from it. I believe when Annalise was disconnecting on the second jump to get into her position for 3 was a great example. She will still do the sequencing, but starts off slow and disengaged in those instances. It sometimes here, promise ass promise Reese Carries into their next turn. I’m sure you’ll have lots of great suggestions for Annalise.Day 2 I changed the rules on Annalise based off of yesterday. Only 3 attempts allowed on a turn!! And if you run it clean, big celebration and jackpot!!! I think this will help her and Annalise! Annalise will have focus more on her handling 😊. Today we did Prytania , then promise, then potter😊! The layer was a tough concept for Prytania! A work in progress.

Her entry is for Dec 2-3. One feo each day, unfortunately akc lol!
Prytania spent the weekend with us trialing and Annalise had today off of school so she got to get a good start on all of this! She filmed the pattern game herself and read up on it while I was at work for a little while today!Prytania hasn’t sequenced in quite awhile. I think it was last max pup, so I was super impressed with both of them. Prytania is in a jump class and Susan is finishing up a contact class. Making sure she gets rest days also so she can
Process all her new info and give her body rest too!!!Here is todays work

Going to rework promise on it all! She’s still a work in progress with arousal, but man is she doing Amazing progress!
I can stand in a ring line up!!!Amy
Incredibly sad! It has been 4 weeks since I’ve been able to do sequencing because of the temperatures that are more like an oven!!! So sad we have had to miss the last bit of camp. Good news though, rain came through last night and brought that 100 temp down to the 70s! Wow!!! I got to build a course last night and we ran it this morning in the amazing temps of feels like 85! Heaven!!!
We are both way out of practice and it was difficult!!! Lots and lots of mistakes! Lots of bars too! If she has a question that bar is coming down!!!
Going to get your feedback and hopefully we can reattempt tomorrow before it hits 100 again. Friday forecasted for 99😫😫😫. Forecasted to be another week of record temps. Miserable august!!! Even more than usual. Just unworkable 😭.https://youtu.be/xR2aq1tHNPI sequence 1
Sequence 2. https://youtu.be/qZX0sq8LcII
Sequence 3. https://youtu.be/lD26qxyBqNM
Sorry to overload you with lots of video! I have been very busy!!! And it’s incredibly HOT! Despite all that the little bits are doing well!
Lead out transfer Last Thursday. I think I was cracking up on first rep because we just got done talking about rewarding first. It all went over her head and she went straight into it. 😂.
I believe it was cooler for this. As cool as august can be here🤪. Prytania doesn’t seem to mind as long as she can cool off in pool.
The throw back is a tough concept for both adolescents! That’s probably the only issue that they had. I think in the lead outs with the tougher concept pry got focused on the bumper, but then on last rep was successful with it thrown by us. Sorry video is long. Lots and lots of rewarding. I even cut out lots of the rewarding lol!!!Last night. Terribly hot. We started at 7:15. When we finished the heat index was 106. Too hot🥵🥵🥵! They both did very well! We did not continue with that throwback. They both still struggle with that.

Tunnel entries and exits!!! This is HARD! They did so well!!!! Hard for the handler to be timely with verbals here!
Bang it game
Also realized we skipped some of serps! Will finish tomorrow 😊
I’m a little late on the posting! This session is from last Wednesday night. Darn job lol!!! They did very well and were able to breeze on through!
Rest of Three ladder opposite side
Wingin in tight blinds
Wingin it double crosses
Week 6 concept transfer serps- Annalise just jumped right in and she got it lol!!! I threw reward at end… 1 to help Lise run a straight line and 2 to help Prytania be a little less hand focused
She comes back over tonight!
Amy
Annalise and Prytania got to practice Monday night! It had a rained an hour or so earlier and did nothing to cool things down. It was super steamy!!! I was exhausted watching them 😂. They both did fabulous! Some confusion sometimes n handling but they worked it out and Prytania didn’t seem to mind at all! Tonight we will work on the rest of the wing’in it!

Raise your game week 4 sequences!
🥵🥵🥵🥵. It’s hard to go back practicing in the swamp after being in the mountains!!! I think I mention every summer I am a St. Louis Midwest girl lol!!! I am not meant for this humidity here 🥵🥵. I dream of my exit from here every summer 😂😂😂! My husbands office in Canada sounds amazing right now 😊😊!
On to the courses… we got some bars and some more bars and then some more bars😂. Time to get back to our jump work too😊! She has had almost a month off on those. I still agree that the bars are totally a processing issue with her!!!
Sequence one— got a drive by on the backside and I’m seeing some reluctance in her wanting to drive ahead a little here!
Sequence 2- missed the last jump of the layer the first time. Lack of connection on my part on that. A little question with the threadle wrap too. No surprise on that since those are a relatively new skill.
Sequence 3. I lowered the bars to 8 since we had previously been getting so many bars. Haha and I still got bars 😜. She ran the sequence well. I had a little brain fart on the second pass of the tunnel and caused her to go to wide there.
Happy to be back with my girlie!!! Sadly all the 7 mile hikes did nothing for my running speed but they sure were fun😂😂😜.
You are doing a fabulous job of pushing me out of my comfort zone this summer😂😂😂! Std 1 was every bit as hard and probably harder than std 2 for us. Which was really hard!!! I broke everything down into sequences and was not insane to try it all in one go😂😂!
1-4 Never got this right. When I was running it, I wasn’t sure why she was coming in for the off course pink jump. Because pink is her color?!?! When I reviewed my video, I realized that it did look like a serpentine to her and that maybe she was reading it as that? She did that on a sequence in the last trial too! She almost took me out to complete her off course serp lol!! Maybe this was the reason? Can’t wait to see what you think.
Long break under fans with coffee😊
5-11 the layered jump was tough but got it when I was in right spot!
Weave entry you can see me breaking down. And WOW she got it at the end!!! Amazing!!! I had a brain fart during all this on 8-9-10 and somehow got it in my head I was sending her to wrong side of 10 and it was the threadle. It was not lol! So ignore all that wrong side stuff. I was indeed doing it on purpose lol! Apparently not enough coffee on previous break!Another break, I became so amazed that she did the weaves and found the tunnel, I temporarily forgot the pretty much the rest of the course which made me not as driven for the rear. I got a refusal😂😂😂 and I also forgot the backside at the end. I fell for the watching my dog weave beautifully 😂😂😂. The threadle was problematic and we got a drive by on the backside. We were brain dead after all this so will have to save for another day.
Std 2- we did this first. When I was able to be where I needed to be she did beautiful!!! She scared with her fly off on the Dogwalk. Not sure is she slipped or what. Grass was slippy this morning. I think the last two attempts I was later getting out ahead and that is why I got wrong jump.
Lots of incredible things from the baby!!!
We get a week off now! I’m going to miss her bunches this week🥰🥰🥰!!!
Since we were training the puppies, The big girls got to play too. unfortunately I missed your comments before I ran this, but I had a lightbulb moment when I saw Carrie layer it with roulez!!!
Sorry the camera is off on our first turn. It most have got shifted and cut some of the course out.-The trick to this line is to send her all the way to 6 and then layer the 5 jump and the unnumbered jump so you can be up at 9-10 before she gets off the a-frame – then you can do a FC there (probably easier to connect with than the blind –
Honestly, I really thought she would need some additional training on me running so hard and so far away, but she did it every time. Wow!!!! What a superstar I have!!! And I felt like I had a lot of time with shortcut!!!
Then she wowed me again with her threadle!!! She remembered that from live class!!! I found I just needed to trust her on this and she got it!!! Getting the jump out of tunnel was our next hard point!! But we were getting better on it toward the end. I am soooo proud of her with this course! Wowza!!!
I work tomorrow and will hopefully get to tackle some of standard one on Friday. Then we leave for family vacation for a week (again❤️❤️). Our first time to Yellowstone😊.
I celebrated the run with another cappuccino ice cream😍😍😍!!!
Prytania and Annalise did such a great job here! I think Prytania really likes having her brother and mama over to train 😊❤️.
Wingin’ it countermotion. We got rained out with a storm that was not predicted and did not get to add the race track.
Amy
You out did yourself in challenges in week two std 2 lol!! Here is a little morning session breaking some of the hard elements down!!! Which is every bit of it😂😊. What a fun course😊!!! Love working on this stuff!!! 1-12
1-4. Haha of course we got the other tunnel, staring her straight in the face. Adding the threadle arm helped a lot. Still got some zig zagging… possibly maybe I need an earlier cue?
I substituted my 10 foot tunnel here on 4 (saving the 20 ft for Prytania tonight) which slightly changes the course to be a little bit easier on my end!!😜. On the map I would probably go to the left wing, but with my setup the line is nice to the right backside.
Having lots of trouble with the 7-11. Especially nine! Hauling butt on that 7-8 line and I just can’t get ther for blind! Having trouble with my connection there also. Trying not collide with the Dogwalk and send her to tunnel, very hard. For some reason I had in my mind she had bypassed this jump, but she did not. I think it was because I’m losing sight of her on that line.
Again I cheated with the course setup for the weaves. I moved two sets further down making it an easier layer for her so when she curls into me she hasn’t bypassed the entry yet.This setup is going to be fun to play with for awhile 😊! I love those setups😊. Way more fun to run and train than setup courses lol!
Had two cappuccino ice creams yesterday! Oh my goodness! A coffee lovers dream 🥰🥰🥰.
Happy 4th of July!!! Today is a no jump day. Planning on working on week 2 standard 2 very soon and knew I needed to break down that weave entry! Hard hard stuff!!! Tell me if I’m on the right path. My idea after this session is to use my tnt and have it at the weave entrance to avoid the tunnel curl and get her to look for the weaves. Her looking at me coming out of tunnel was biggest issue this session.
