ParticipantPopOut 3 from Package 3’s Standard Course. Walked it with the idea of one and done, focus on connections and patience/not backing up. First rep starting with the six weaves, 2nd rep there was a fast line coming off the Aframe coming into the weaves. I wanted to see if I could duplicate the handling when it was obstacles 7 to…. Instead of 1 to…
I’ve got a couple other PopOuts that we played with yesterday and still want to review the times on the 2 different ways of handling PopOut 6. Hopefully I’ll get to those in the next day or so….We struggled with one of the other PopOuts, definitely gonna need some feedback on that one!

ParticipantBlinds are still a little late ☹️ but I think the connection was better, but still needs a little more work….getting closer though 😊

ParticipantPop Out 5 from the Standard Course…
I played with turning to the right at jump 3 in Pop Out 6. It was “easy” to handle, felt like quite a bit longer distance than doing it with a wrap to the left. Need to edit the video and then compare times. I think I need to time from Jump 2 to either 5 or 6 to get the whole picture on the time difference?

ParticipantBlinds and a front…. Cooler weather and treats a little further away. Once again, this was the whole session.

ParticipantWraps…..
This was the whole session with treat restocking cut out. Interesting how she starts to fade pretty early in the session. Thinking about why that might be I thought of 3 things that may have contributed…..the exercise is harder, requires more focus and more physically difficult jumping at the wrap; as much as she likes to tug I think it is a physically tiring thing for her and then there was a bag of treats on a shelf just outside of camera view. Whoa, in hindsight I asked for a lot of hard stuff….good girlie ❤️

ParticipantTwo and done 🙄
Pop Out 6 from the Package 3 Standard course. I couldn’t really think of another way to handle this one.

ParticipantOne last session with the circle wrap….picked him up closer to the tunnel so I could better manage my motion and space… these felt like our best ones yet 😊

ParticipantPop Outs 2 and 3 from the Package 2 Jumpers Course. I treated Pop Out 3 like “real life” – out on leash, no rewards on me, get it done. Done! Chose to do this with this one because I only really saw one way to handle it and it was all with skills that we “have” so let’s do it “for real”.
Pop Out 2 on the other hand was more for training. Wanted to try it a couple of different ways and 4 to 9 was interesting!

ParticipantCircle wraps from today….

ParticipantI definitely think it’s a combination of all of the above 🙂 What I do know for sure is that there is a level of mental and physical difficulty that (so far at least) there is no amount of short breaks, rewards for her to be able to be fully engaged for more than 2 or 3 reps. Her first tell is that she just can’t hold her sit. It’s like the amount of effort that she has to put in just completely wears her out. I do think I am starting to see some of that change as she is getting older, but she is still mentally (and physically) such a pup 🙂
All that said she liked One-Step Sends almost as much as me being lazy 🙂

ParticipantI think what felt “not right” was the degree of turn from the wrap jump to the the jump after it… just seemed like more angle than the video and it probably was a little more because of the way I had to squish it a little bit to fit in the space. But it definitely worked!
Yep, a touch late on the right verbal…but I did remember it! Progress….😉
Question on the circle wrap. Is the timing for the blind more I move to takeoff side with Sly still on my left and when I get past the wing I do the blind and and sorta tuck in behind the wing? I’ll do one this way tomorrow and video…
Thanks as always!

ParticipantMillie says “Lazy Games are Fun!” 🥰
Parts 2 and 3 with the jumps spread out a little bit more. The whole session was about 4 minutes long, everything on the video and break (that I cut out) to reload treats. This was a long session for her. I kinda lost track of time and reps because she was so into it and she is very clear when she’s running out of gas/brain/energy/motivation/focus….and she never showed any of that. I might have to start setting a timer for her! Never needed one before this today. 😊Kim Tees
ParticipantThis setup never felt “right”, no idea why? I had played with the individual skills a couple of times last week but never got around to posting videos and needed to setup something else today so here it is all together.

ParticipantThis dog is such a hoot! The Lazy Game, Take 1. This is the whole session….the breaks in the video are when I was reloading with treats.
