    – if you get to the toy first, you get to tug with Tina. And she has to watch – which might make her BIG MAD and then she smokes you on the next rep 🙂

    This made me snort!

    Did some sandwich handling, we experimented with food, no food on the decel, throw toy or the last rep Tina dragged the toy. Not a great angle, but I think you can get the gist.

    Then I tried to redeem myself with parallel on prop and I thought it went much better.

    >She was probably looking at you because you were using a ‘yes’ marker, which gets the pups looking up at us and watching our hands toss the treat. So to get her looking at the line and not at you, switch to a ‘get it’ marker: when she hits the prop, say ‘get it’ and toss the treat. That should keep her eyes on the line and reduce the fly-bys 🙂

    Dammit, I KNEW that – LOL!!! (and that’s why we video)

    Some more work on the same stuff, I left it all there cuz I had some questions.
    Like what do I do about the fly bys on the prop? Does she need more value on it?

    Trying to get caught up on some stuff. We’re getting in some practice, not always video.
    I smiled at the backup,video with Exie. All my dogs learned to back that way. Bella is gonna change that, lol

    I think I may have gotten 1 blind mechanic right.
    Toy stuff with the prop changed the picture. At times I felt like she didn’t know what to do, sit, grab toy or what. It was still a great tugging session though !!!

    I’ve been watching this litter grow up. My 6yo Josie is a relative. Cash is her grandad. Have fun with Tribute.

    Had just a few minutes this afternoon so tried the 2nd jww course. Easier to send out to those jumps going this way. Well when I time it right. I thought it went well and I love how she grabbed the weaves the first time.

    The first few seconds of this video are really all I needed to see. This is our first time in the bldg around equip and during class that I asked for a lateral stay and look forward. Yippee skippy.
    The rest was just lots of fun.

    Yes it does, would I put any treat on that target? Or is the visual enough? Maybe start with a bigger target and work smaller?

    in reply to: Christine & Josie (4yo Aussie) #54064

    Finished off that round of pop outs with the course on the left.
    We did a once and done cuz it worked and it felt really good.

    Then I wanted to do a short blip of some contract training to get your input if you don’t mind. In a trial she would never drive to the end with me that far away or that far back. The last rep where she did stop off to the side and then came back at me instead of forward to the treat was similar to what she does though at the trial she doesn’t stop and may jump off the side to come back at me. I don’t feel like the ready treat is even a lure per say because she will still come off and she still didn’t go to it that last time. I had her pretty jacked up, lots of tunnels and then having to re do when she did go to the treat and didn’t get it. Any other ideas for me?

    I don’t always have the opportunity to try these again so woo hoo.
    My first instinct was BC 2-3 on the first sequence and I tried it though for some reason I didn’t include it. I had 20 minutes of recording to shift through and thought I grabbed all of the running parts.
    That scenario tends to get me a bar at 1 or 2. How can I help her with that?
    We did do it last night and kept both bars up our 2nd try.

    The lovely spin has been a bit forgotten when I stopped running Reba. I do need to remember it though especially in that scenario on the last course, it worked nicely.

    Going back thru to see what I may have missed first time around. I did more RC than I’d like and not always pretty but didn’t feel I could get out of there doing anything else.
