Okay, got it. Team Chill. Geez, Why can’t i remember that. Calm. Don’t be too exciting for stays! Ha,ha…you don’t remember if you stepped over the jump in the video. Now I wanna go look. LOL!
Okay, here is the Retrieve games. I spliced two video’s together. The first video is the End behavior. Yea. She thought it was weird at first. I what the heck are you doing now? And then we did the Part 2, Bring me the toy! Hmmmm….started out where she wanted to go around me when she came back. A few times I hit the floor and she came back with out the toy. I suppose she is not used to me hitting the floor. And then it got better towards the end. She liked this. I let her win sometimes too when she brought it back. Like it says. That makes sense, otherwise you may get the Keep away behaviors. We’ll work on this some more. I need this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0j-RaKEaHs
Ha! We must be typing at the same time. Yea, usually the Pizza…I go back and deliver the treat. I better stick to that and not use it say right before I release her from a distance with a “break”.
Wow. Good catch. She is twitchy when I move a way and stop and took a step. Okay. take steps with out stopping between steps then release. Got it.Hi. The ‘good” girl” is just a general praise. Your’re doing a good job. Supposed to be calming I guess. Maybe I use it TOO much now. The “Pizza…….”
means a reward is coming. Keep doing what your’re doing or the Delivery man is not coming. LOL. The next video there isn’t a whole lot better I guess. I’ll do it with your new feed back. More quiet, Move away sooner or she is trying to figure out if I want her to offer more. Got it. Turn more. And STEP OVER THE JUMP, to get to the other side. Well THAT was a lightbulb moment. LOL. Did you do that in the video? Probably. Can’t beleive I missed that. LOL! Yea. That will help! Thanks!! Yea. Now I want PIZZA. Pepperoni with Green olive. Yea. Extra cheese! 🙂Heres another one. Start line and jump. A little better. I think I just need to back it up and work on getting distance and doing movement. I did some movement here.Yea. Go back to the “Adding distance and movement.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNMidom69Xw
Start lines stays in front of a jump. So I mixed in the catch with the Break. She gets the catch good. I think I just need to work more of those and get my distance. Can’t really get the distance much to get on the other side and call her over. Just takes time I supposed. I have…..been doing those bucket markers I think you call them. They have two feet on the bucket (upside down) and I can get more distance with them. But not on the ground I see. I also use a verbal, “Pizza…….” it means the delivery is coming, you need to stay. I really didn’t want to mix the two things here. I wanted to stick with how you are doing it. What do you think? Should I mix in the “Pizza…..”? I also use the “good girl”. I don’t want to confuse her either. Hmmm…….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=porbygefnho
Yea. Sometimes she offered the down. So I should just release her with the reward and play for the down too? No sit is not at the top of her list. Helping her with the hand signal and verbal is okay. Got it. I’ll still try to let her offer it too.
Distance. Turn a little but stay connected. Oh geez, didn’t even realize I was backing up. okay. Do these in different places. K. We are going to do the one in front of jump today. Thanks! Sounds good!!And here is adding Distance. Hmmm……not too bad. I’ve been working on this. Didn’t add too much movement, marching or anything. I’ll try that next. Hmm…and then I release her to me…next too I think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IhWR-OkGhg
Here is the Explosive stays and Releases. Yea. she liked this. Still not always popping into the sit by herself. Actually her Sit cue is getting a little better. I had really good Gooberlishiouse treats. So she wanted them over the toy sometimes. lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AGtztZNXRM
Oh yea it says, Dog side hand down your leg to indicate drive to handler. But still need to turn my head and everything. But it feels weird since I am so used to using my outside hand with the toy in it. When she crosses. I’ll do this more. lol
Baby level Collection sandwich. Decel, turn. Ha,ha! this is hard! Started out not too good. Did the second one wrong. But then it did get better. Once I got ahead of her so I could show decel. Same as the first time we did this a couple wks ago. And…I always want to treat her with the outside arm like we do with the toy. But I notice in the video I think you treat with the dog side arm so you can bring them around from there. Is that right. I can’t stop doing it. lol.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FajcNkUYSEo
Here I did the Start lines stays with the toy. Yea she liked that. I did it with the treats before this and she still didn’t want to sit on her own much. A few of these she pops into a sit after playing. But then doesn’t want to later. Yea. I think she thinks sitting is boring !!! LOL! Wow she is staying nice. Did I do that right with the sit (and I did the “good girls”)duration…and I moved back too. She stayed really nice. And then you still say “catch” at this point? I think we are ready for the “Break!”. So next I replace the “catch” with the “break”? Confusing. LOL I rewatched the video. Might have to watch it again. 🙂 I like this. This is really working good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbmrxJVMKOY
This went better. It helped when you had those lines. sit——-click-“catch”-treat. And I got it behind her. Now I understand it. The duration comes between the sit and the click. I did some duration and a little distance. She stayed all the time. She does not want to offer the sit by herself all the time though. And she got a little distracted. But the sit—click-catch went better. 🙂 I’ll work up to the Advanced level. But this is great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caUu-YiiJ-E
And we redid the Countermotion. Yea…..This went better. I SENT her. Got her ready with some “ready,ready’s”. Yes that worked nice. Yea. I made her be patient. She wanted to go herself a few times. I think just because she likes the bag so much. lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nml4QGZvd0g
Here is a redue of the Commitment RC. Went a little better. She is sending to the bag nice. Sometimes at the beginning I pull her off of it. But I was showing her the RC sooner.So I guess that’s good. There were some pretty good ones at the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Kq0q54saI
Great! I can start using some of his verbals. And Jedi’s Generation has more than what Sport had. 🙂
Okay we did the, Making Start Line says fun. Baby level. Just did the first level. Did them the other day and it was a disaster. Sometimes there are treats in the basement. I do a lot of Sports Nosework down there and you use a lot of treats when they find the hide. Grr…..Ruby was distracted. Tossed that video. Here she is better. I think…it went okay. Am I doing it right for the baby level? I don’t know. It shows to throw the treat behind them. I am confused. At this point we say the “catch” (and click) and then throw the treat. Is the “catch” the release word? Eventually the “catch” means like stay…and then you are going to get the treat? And when do you use “Break”? Hmmm…..I think I’m doing this right at the baby level. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWlg1h7UBes
