Loved your comments on the drive to handler video! I definitely had to watch the video a few times to take them all in. We have done bowl work and pivot foundation re rear end awareness, but I also think she is pretty coordinated. Looking forward to doing this one more.
Here is Bokeh doing Prop Game 1 Building Sends And Commitment and Wing Wrap Foundations Shaping The Wing Wrap… My original training plan was to just do one Max Pup game, the prop game… but I did such a bad job I needed to do the wing wrap to make myself feel better. So we tugged and did a kibble scatter, then went into the next game.
The prop game was so much fun to watch on the live class and actually, watching my video back it was not as bad as it felt in the moment… But I know we will be able to do it much better when I sort out everything (again mechanics). It was still super fun! We had done two sessions of the pre game previously. I can see why you do this one on a random object! Haha! I did have treats in my “sending” hand a few times and I even read the post/question about that before… I know there was some really bad clicking when she was not on the hat. It’s amazing that dogs can still learn with us.
The wing wrap game is one we have done a few times, but not recently. We mostly followed the motion games plan to start originally, since I had done some basic motion game foundation with my other dogs awhile back, but we never got far into it. She really loves this game!

Thank you! Such great insight! I will work on those tips for my next session. Today we did Drive To Handler. I thought it went well, forgot to say get it. I’m trying to be better with using words. This was a fun game!
I enjoyed watching the live session! That was fun! Here is Bokeh with Drive Ahead Focus Forward Session 1. We have worked on both giving the toy up, but I generally make it dead with both hands on it, or trading for a treat. She has been good and getting better at both. I think need to figure out better mechanics for holding her and doing all the other things, I don’t do a lot of holding so this is good practice. Total session was 3 minutes and I edited out some playing to shorten it. I left in where she grabbed my hand. She has been getting better about that and all of her puppy teeth are gone so at least that is better!
