Tried to be closer and use her verbals before sends on the discriminations. She was in sleepy mode and still found it challenging with out my step towards the entrance. Did smile and I tried to be better connected. She seemed happy!
Ok I tried to throw before she took off on the wind exercise and then we played with smile! Such fun.

Thank you for the feedback. I moved the jumps closer by 6 inches. I also switched from the bump to the bar on the first jump to help her sit closer. Feeling like I should try them closer still. Also I thought I would try the still toy. She was certainly focused on it! We both loved the wind in our hair. She is taking off early here too though. This is me being calm about my amazing fast puppy who jumps ugly.
Ok so here are 2 games. These were mid morning which is her sleepy not overly amped time. That helped me with the stays! She still broke once but was pretty good. Her jumping scares me…. But then again her mom jumps worse and never knocks bars.
Thanks for the feed back. If I get back from work during daylight we will feel the wind. I suspect Taq will love that one!

Thank you!
Ok I will be calm.
Here is our fun with straight tunnels. To be clear I laughed when I saw the exercise! Taq cannon….

I took a few days to focus on stays and other calm behaviors 😉
When does max puppy 2 start?
Between each rep puppy got a throw back and there was only 1 break!!! We did play, hike, play some all before our training session.
So many things freaked me out here. The early take offs😬😬😬😬😬
Then when we switched sides she could not go forward. I moved the Cato board closer and through early which is probably what screwed up her take off point before.

Seriously, did I break her on the final exercise?We had some stay challenges and I did reinforce back to her tons in between. The site of the barrel is enough to send her to upper states of arousal. I guess that gives me some homework.
Tracy- LOL at fading the MM. Indeed It would be hard to carry on the flight! I introduced a toy reward last night. Ready to fade the MM as well. I posted on the DSF club facebook and someone asked what else the magic box could do! So many things…
Good evening! I am really having fun with the crate games 😉
Planning on using this to shape jumping into progressing smaller crates for her upcoming flight!
Re flyball I don’t enjoy barking dogs. So not really the sport for me. Yes the stinker who pounds on my like I am a flyball board would love it…
Poured rain all weekend I did some of my best work in this video! Amazing how I limited reps in the rain.
Ok improved the crate game with everything closer. Also tried the bigger crate with a comfortable pad so she offered lying down. Did the ball to hand too.
Good evening!
Sorry for the long video but I had to show the entire crate game. I was pretty happy with how that went. She was sleepy for the Matt. So my timing was better. Still not sure she knows which feet matter.Tracey
Thanks for the feedback! I finally understood where to deposit the toy for the wrap slice! I put the target on some blocks. Seeing her jump makes me nervous since I have not been able to get her mother to understand “ running contacts” mean no jumping!🤣
I also show some awesome stays and sends.
Tracey- Thanks for the feedback.
I use the moving release/reward with her mother because she knows me too well 😏 so I had already started that with the Taq. Just did not have room. I used catch at least equal to forward releases on the Cato board. I know I need to transition off it but I’m cold wet grass it is so useful. Wondered what you thought of the mat training? Last time with this you wanted her to move away from me across the mat with the magic cookie box. I wanted to revisit the hind foot target before I did that. She makes so few mistakes I am
Not sure she knows what I am clicking for.I could not video it but she offered circling the iPhone tripod base😁
Still need to do flyball recalls. Got to get some help for that.
