Frankie had an amazing weekend! She was amped & engaged for every run and we didn’t do any FEO! We did 3 runs a day. This is the location that we had the most trouble at 2 years ago and I skipped it last year. I am so impressed with her! THANK YOU for sharing all your knowledge and helping me discover they key to unlocking what was holding her back in the ring. Treat FOMO is real!!! Frankie sez so!
I am so encouraged by the progress I am seeing. <3We played the remote reinforcement game about 20 feet from the ring until we were closer in the lineup. Then we switched to volume dial games outside the gate. Lots of barking on cue! She even did some “middle” line ups in the ring AND barked in the ring before we started!
We didn’t get a lot of Qs but I loved every single run! She was fantastic! The errors were mine and she dropped a couple of bars but I think the dirt was slippery. It felt like when you stepped, the sand compacted but then the sand beneath that compressed sand moved underneath your foot and I could feel my footing slip a few times.
Here are her videos!!! I am floating!!!Saturday
STD run 1 of 3 Q!
JWW run 2 of 3
Premier JWW run 3 of 3
Sunday
T2B run 1 of 3
STD 2 of 3
JWW 3 of 3
She was amazing at the start line and I got distracted and almost got lost at jump #2. Lame Momma! Hahaha!
Hi Tracy!
Thank you for the trial feedback this weekend on Saturday!!!
>>The Timing Masterclass has a lot more content (all the way up to full courses and a year to do it all). The CAMP class is more of a specific focus (independence!) so I guess it depends on what you want to work on. Either way, you can share one spot between the 2 dogs if you want!
Thank you! This is a tough decision because I really want to do both. I’m leaning towards CAMP because submitting homework keeps me accountable & moving forward. Otherwise, I seem to get stuck in a perfection-illusion loop!
We had a blast at the trial this past weekend. It was a very busy atmosphere and she did great. Like really great. Thank you for the feedback about my “wait” vs “break” at the start line on Saturday. When I watched the video again, I do think she was waiting for me to release her and she thought what I said was “break.” When I think about it, I saw her expression & her face said it all, she really thought I released her.
Here is the video:
She had a great run on Sunday too. I did the volume dial after I warmed her up and when we got closer to the ring, I switched to the up & down game with treats on my shoes at the gate. She did tug the leash on the way in (which I was happy about) and she let it go when I unclipped it which is perfect! She let me drop it & gave me her attention. Then she did “middle” line up for me at the start jump.
We played a lot of tug after this run and we traded “out” for treats. She was dropping the leash really fast and was happy to re-tug each time. It was fun.
I really need to work on the offset jump thing. That gets us.
Thank you again!
Next stop is the Boston Nationals! I am going to stick to my guns and stay FEO for novice JWW. I could try doing FAST as In & Out (no toy) and see how she does with playing once we get to her leash at the end. That would be a first attempt at in & out for us.I have some crazy news! We are picking up a hitchhiker on the way home from nationals!
Lew! He is a Japanese Chin. He’s the little guy at he top of the screen chasing his tail. He is my hubby’s puppy and I’m going to try hard not to steal him, but I think he needs to learn agility foundations at least for his well-being & happiness 😉I would love to learn how to do massage!!! Was the class far from Florida (probably) hahaha?
Frankie had a great weekend at the trial this past weekend! It was only 1 day and it was fun & done!
As I mentioned in Bazinga’s thread, I was spacey that day but she was on point!
Barking at the start line & very engaged! She did 3 runs. I only have video of two of the JWW & STD. They were runs 1 & 2 of the day. We did FEO Premier STD last as run #3. I decided to do FEO because there were a few creative challenges that I felt were outside our skillset and she got all the hard stuff! HA! That will teach me not to trust Frankie! 😉Frankie Standard – NQ but she was on fire! I was LATE with my cue.
JWW Q! She barked at the start line!
I’m excited to see how she does this coming weekend. The last time we were at this trial location, she was shutting down a lot and I felt like she really did not care for this location. I’m starting to think it may have been less location specific and more about overall stress and the fact that we were trialing so hard that year. I think she was burned out and stressed. There were a few other locations that I had flagged in my head as places she didn’t like and had skipped going there for a while that we returned to recently and she did well with them.
Thanks for the feedback!
Hi Tracy!!
>>One other thing you can try is getting her ramped up then right before going into the ring… a pattern game. That might be the sweet spot for getting her really engaged without any tooth hugs. Playing with it will help you develop the perfect ‘recipe’ but it will change in the next months/year as she gains more experience.
This was a mind-blower and brilliant! I love the idea of ramping her up & letting her tug & have fun ahead of time and then doing the pattern games and volume dial tricks when we wait to go in the ring. It may bring out her “all business self” in the trial enviroment.
I tried it at home with our TSA game and she was so good about letting go of the leash when I said “out” and traded for treats. I think the tugging was too close to the transition of me approximatng the wait in line and she was still pretty amped even after we did the pattern game. She wanted to tug on the way into the ring, so I let her (and watched my fingers!)
I’ll keep playing this game with her & put more time between the tugging and when we actually go up to wait by the ring.We had a 1 day trial this weekend and Bazinga did great! I was not on top of my game for some reason. I just couldn’t get my head in the game but fortunately, I don’t think the dogs noticed!
She had one run. It is a 2 ring, indoor arena on dirt. Pretty distracting environment and I think she had a lot of focus!
I’m really looking forward to your feedback on this run. I think I slowed down to do rear crosses in the beginning sequence and I think Bazinga responded by slowing down too. I think if I had moved a little faster, I could have gotten BCs in instead and encouraged Bazinga to stay fast.Bazinga FEO Novice JWW
We tried weaves at our training field last Wednesday. I brought the MM as a target & used her lotus ball as a reward. 4 poles was too hard. I let her do 2 poles and she was great. Baby steps.
Sunday we did weaves at a friend’s house. Same set up familiar MM and new weaves. She did 4 no problem! She is doing 6 at home with a jump before it. YAY!Here are some clips of us in small sequence class. I need to train a lateral start line!
I do think the times she curved in to my line, I was turning forward instead of keeping my shoulder and arm back and that broke the connection. I’m a little anxious about these sessions because I feel like I’m less in control of the environment and I’m trying to be conscious of rewarding her and not talking to the instructor & being distracted with her. I want to be sure that if something is too hard for her that I can break it down and make it easier for her. On the flipside it is good that it is pushing me to assess and react and see what we can do.Now that we are taking some small sequence classes, and people are seeing her in action, I am getting the feedback “you need to be faster!” because she is so speedy. Although I am committed to improving my fitness, I know that I am never going to keep up with her, I am working on keeping the connection in place so that I can handle her with distance.
Sequence 1
Sequence 2
I’m trying to decide on the next class that is best for us CAMP 2025, the Connection Masterclass or the Timing Masterclass. What do you think is the best place to go after MP4?
We have a 2 day trial this weekend and I’m excited for it! I’ll send video & updates 🙂
Thank you for the feedback!!>>Amateur massages are great! Have you ever done skin-rolling? That is what the real massage people have me do with mine as part of their warm up and cool down.
I have not heard of that so I googled it! Very cool! I tried it and Frankie looooooved it! Thank for the info!!!>>She sounds like a rage-filled cat-dinosaur cross LOL!
Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!!>>That is a great plan! If you don’t need the JWW and STD, you can save her for the other classes. Plus Bazinga will be running those classes pretty soon and that way you can focus all on her 🙂
Oooo…That is genius, I had not thought about that!
Thanks again!!!!>>Hooray for the weaves!!! Are they easy to throw in the car and take different places?
I think I can fit 2 in my car for sure. I’m going to see if I can load all 3!
I’m going to ask my neighbor if I can do a few sessions in her yard too. She hasn’t been there yet so it will be a new location and I can walk the poles over.>>Did you lead out further? Canine arousal also shifts human arousal, so if you were more relaxed it is possible you led out an extra couple of steps.
I think I did, I am trying to teach myself to find the sweet spot of where I need to lead out to so I can be ahead & show her the line. I think this is going to be Bazinga-cruicial! Hahaha
I am super thankful that she is so great at holding her stay. I’m going to remember to keep reinforcing it & keeping it fun!>>I think it is good to rehearse the ‘up and down’ of arousal regulation, and that is why the game is useful. Plus we get feedback from the dog – she really wants to do more tugging! She keeps reaching for the leash even in the in between moments. So you can ask her for calmer behaviors and then let her tug on a tug leash or a toy. She regulates really well when you do that, and it will help direct her teeth to the leash/toy and not your flesh 🙂
Ok, so I need to turn this into a “tug-it” game & play for a bit and then ask her to sit or give me a paw or spin (if she can) and then the “tug-it” game starts again to help her transition between arousal levels? Is it ok to use treats in the beginning when I ask her for the calmer behaviors? She’s my first tug dog so I am a noob and did not train this in an orderly fashion!
>>OMG BT NATIONALS!!!!!! That sounds like so much fun. Where are they holding it?
Owensboro, Kentucky for the conformation & obedience and Evansville, Indiana for agility. I’ll post lots of pics & videos!
Thank you!!!!!!
Hi Tracy!
>>She jumped a little high/early in 2 spots here: at :28 where she hit the bar (you were a bit disconnected and looking forward) and on the last jump. I don’t recall seeing early jumping from her, so it is possible that something is a bit touchy which is why she didn’t want to weave in the other JWW run?Sometimes she does jump early, but she hasn’t really done it in a while. I never connected that it could have something to do with her being ouchy. She did have a spot mid-back (this is one of her spots) that was out of alignment. But it went back in easily. I noticed a lot of knots in her shoulder muscles, so I gave her some amateur massages after the trial.
>>She picked up speed really well – and she forgave you for the RC push into her line at :15 (a little bit of side eye from her LOL!) She said a BC on the line before it would have been better 🙂
Hahaha! That would have been a better decision!!!Here are Frankie’s latest TSA games. We ran past the gate and then back in these. She had some distractions that got her attention here & there but I just waited for her attention to shift back to me and we kept going.
You will hear the monster-noises that is Bazinga not wanting to wait her turn too!
I’m trying to get her to bark after she gets her last treat before we go inside the gate too. I forgot to try it at the start line. I will add that in next time.
TSA 1
TSA 2
I’m trying to decide between doing FEO as our first run of the day or just doing the first run for real since she has been doing really well with the first 2 runs of the day. Maybe just surprising her with FEO when the FAST course is not one of our favorites.
She has 2 more QQs for her MACH4 and then I can drop her to 8 inches. Our only other thing to work towards is her Agility Grand Championship (we need 26 FAST, 22 Premier STD, 22 Premier Jumpers and 9 T2B Qs) but I’m not sure I want to make that a “goal”. I want to keep things fun for her that is really my priority. If I do work towards that, I think I would want to drop regular JWW and STD. I don’t like doing more than 3 runs with her in a day. She seems to have spoken about that.
Thanks for watching and for all the good advice!!!!
Hi Tracy!
I was bummed to miss the zoom chat last night!
Weaves update!
We have worked our way back to 6 weaves with the lotus ball (MM in the background)!!! I moved the poles into the back field (4 poles) and I could tell it was a little harder for her but she got comfortable after a few sessions.We did the TSA game today and I’d love some advice. She gets so amped up during this game that she’s started being bitey. She’s grabbing at my clothes and biting the leash so wildly that she’s a menace! Hahaha
Is it too much for her? Maybe she doesn’t need it whereas Frankie does need the added excitement?
Here are 2 back to back sessions. I left the before & after in. Really the runs were a mess because we were both so discombobulated with all the wildness.I tried running the course with her again later after she calmed down and she took all the obstacles like a pro. (We both did better). Of course, I don’t have video of that.
Here are the videos:
TSA 1
TSA 2
We have a 1 day trial next weekend (that I think I’ll be able to go to) and a 2 day trial the following weekend.
Then the Boston Terrier Nationals!!! That will be fun! There is a tunnelers fun run that she’s going to love!I have an FEO progression question with weaves.
What should my criteria be for attempting the weaves in the novice ring with a toy? Once she is comfortable doing 6 weaves at the field where we take training classes? Should she be doing 6 weaves with an obstacle before and after at home and at the training field? Or should I wait until I have that same criteria but on all 12 weaves?Hi Tracy!
Here is the Frankie avalanche from this weekend!Frankie had a great weekend. We did not get a lot of Qs but I was happy with her engagement & energy. I mixed it up because we were ninja-ing to the trial Saturday morning and it was a 4 hour ride, so no FAST with FEO on Saturday. She only had 2 runs on Saturday. We started with Standard and she was so into it! We got an off course but that was because SHE WAS SO INTO IT! (and also because I was late with my cue) but I celebrated that she was so far ahead & faster than I expected!
Standard – Saturday run 1 of 2
JWW was second. She started off a tiny bit slow and then started to pick up speed, but she popped out of the weaves. Not sure really why. Maybe the judge was too close for comfort & she got distracted? We have a chiro appointment tomorrow. Since we have been doing that monthly, she hasn’t really popped the weaves due to discomfort, but I’m happy she is being seen before we run again. She really did a nice job here.
JWW Saturday run 2 of 2
Sunday she ran FAST, Jumpers and Standard.
We did it in that order, so jumpers wasn’t last and I think she still ran jumpers the slowest and least engaged, although in her defense it was a little bit of a demotivating start.For FAST I tried it for real (no FEO). The video is funny! We spent a lot of time trying to get the send and we got buzzed, so I ran past the weaves. I was planning on skipping them anyway, so I was calling her but the line was perfect and she just went & did the weaves all by herself! I was so far away and stunned! LOL. I think I started moving my feet where I was to encourage her and not make her think it was a mistake, because it was SPECTACULAR! Hahahaha
FAST run 1 of 3 (no toy)
Here is her Jumpers run (run 2 of 3).
Her weaves were so good in FAST, that I got some feedback that maybe I am babying her in them and putting too much pressure on her. So in Standard, I gave her some breathing room but concentrated on staying connected and she did great. It was noon-ish when we ran and it had warmed up quite a bit but she had some speed & had fun here. I was really happy with this run.
Standard Sunday – run 3 of 3 (early in the day noon)
Thanks for looking at alllllllllllllllllllllllllll the videos!!!!
I have terrible timing posting this if you are building courses at the 1TDC Invi!!!!!!
I’ve been watching peeps post their run videos and it is sooooo inspiring!!!!Bazinga got to do 3 runs this past weekend. It was the first time she did 2 runs in a day and she says “no big deal!” 🙂
I was super proud of her run in FEO novice JWW. I felt like we were connected. Such a cool feeling!
You can hear my friends video-ing. They couldn’t see that Bazinga caught my jacket sleeve in her mouth along with the leash and it was a long few seconds for me until she let go! I thought we might be there forever!I left the leash for the leash runner for the first time and she seemed ok with that. I tried to do more obstacles before pulling out the toy but the weaves were at the halfway point, so we played & I took an extra second to reset before we started again. She was a very good girl & refocused.
Bazinga Novice Jumpers – Saturday
We made up a course in Premier JWW. I learned the lesson to not be stingy with my leadout. If I took one more step (or 2) I would have been in a better position to show her the line. She overtook me big time!
I’m pretty sure 😉 she was beelining for the judge, but she listened to my shrill voice and came back to the jumps! We did some moves and I was very proud of her!Bazinga premier JWW – Sat
We ran Novice JWW again on Sunday but we didn’t get any video. She was happy & into it though!
We were supposed to go to a trial this weekend, but my little very old fluffy lady is having some health issues, so I canceled. We will do some teeter stuff and sequences this weekend at home. We have been doing the TSA game at home as well and we’ll keep doing that too.
Also, the transition to the lotus ball in weaves training is going well. Thank you for all the help! The other day I clicked the MM to surprise her and she looked at me like “What the what? Where’s my ball?” Hopefully that is a good sign! We are working on an angled poles 5&6 now.
Thank you! Have fun at the trial!!!!
Hi Tracy!
Yay – thank you for the good feedback! I’ll build some bigger course to practice handling & use them for TSA too – with a chair for the leash. That is a great idea. I have ben carrying Frankie’s leash for so long, I forgot about the leash chair.From Frankie’s feedback – Yes! That noise you heard was Bazinga making monster noises waiting for her turn in the crate! Hahahah
I hope you don’t mind if I ask some questions about the weaves? I’m really floundering – with human highs & lows on this transition. I spun the 4 poles in a different direction in the yard and had the MM further away and she struggled finding the weaves. As I type that I am realizing maybe changing 2 variables is a problem, too, but I really didn’t have the MM that much further away.
>>And then you can put it behind a tunnel! >>
Really!? I’m trying to picture that, like behind the tunnel & then do I send her to the tunnel?>>Yes, I would go all the way up to 12 poles with the MM being worked away into different spots and faded out entirely.>>
Ok, this is a big relief! I thought I would need to fade it while she was on 4 or 6 poles. So I can keep it as a visual, but not reward from it. And I should move it around (further away, hidden behind a wing) so the picture is a little different very time? And I can just keep going with the progressions up to 12 poles and keep progressing the fade as we go but gradually.
I want to work up to bringing them out to our slightly bigger field to make it feel like they are in a different location before I introduce them to her at another away from home location.
I was also worried about not having it as a visual if I bring her to where we are taking class to use the 2x2s there.
Thanks so much for the advice!!! This is our last step to be ready for Novice Jumpers for real!!!
Hi Tracy!
We had our first class on Wednesday. I didn’t get any video but it was fun. We worked on the TSA game outside the ring and did a few In & Outs. She started breaking her start line when we tried for sequences of 4 obstacles. I spent some time just refreshing “catch” at various jumps to get some value back. She was really raring to go and that was fun, but I want to keep her start line good, so I’ll keep working on it. It has been a while since I reinforced it, so that is on me.
We have a trial next weekend! It is an outdoor on grass 2 ring trial. She’s been at the location often when she was little but it will be her first time in the ring there. She’s entered in 1 run (novice JWW) Saturday & 1 on Sunday.
Since it has been a while since we have been at a trial, I think I’ll hide a toy & do empty hands. I’ll keep Saturday easy to get a feel for how she is feeling and then if she is all good, I’ll do more obstacles on Sunday. If you have any suggestions, I’m open! ☺
We are progressing at fading the MM with weaves. She’s looking for the lotus ball and ignoring the MM. I have it moved pretty far away. Our last session, she was very happy abut the lotus ball. I’m excited.
We’ll keep going with the progression & move the MM behind a wing and then I think I can just not put it out at all. We are still on 4 weaves to keep it easy during the transition. Do you think I should get back to 6 poles while the MM is still out there in the distance?I’ve been working on the TSA game with Bazinga too. I asked her to go back & fix some stuff when she ran past some jumps. I think that was a mistake, but I wanted to check in & see what your thoughts are. I guess I wasn’t prepared for run-bys and I didn’t have a plan. If she runs to the gate what should I do? Bring her out to reward her & try again?
Thanks for the advice!!!
Hi Tracy!
Thank you for all the feedback & ideas for why her 3rd run of the day is slow and strategies!
She gets A LOT of treats at trials – like an obscene amount – so I don’t think she needs a meal. I don’t think she’s had too much…but I will pay attention to that part too. She is pretty good about drinking but more water could be a help. Maybe a high-energy treat like a little honey could help. I love the idea to switch to a really high value treat for the last run. She’s been on a low fat diet, but I will see if I can bake her some treats that are low fat & different to get her attention.I could increase her cardio too. I’ve been kind of “saving” her and just doing small sequences so I don’t over work her, but maybe she needs more activity to keep her endurance up.
I’ll add some massage time after her runs too and make sure she gets some walking as part of her cool down.
We tried out the Back on Track blanket last trial and she snuggled under it. I’ve been putting it against the back of my work chair for my back & Bazinga has started cramming herself between me & the blanket to lay on it. Very interesting! I do feel like it helps take the edge off my stiffness.
We are off this weekend and then we have a trial for the next 2 weekends.
The next one is at a location that Frankie doesn’t really love. We haven’t gone for a year, so I’m curious to see how she does with all we have been working on.I think I’m going to stay with carrying her in right now. It seems like if I have my hands on her right up until I release her, she stays amped. I’m flexible about it if things change though.
We are working on the TSA game at home. I’m trying to get to where it is really easy for her to go through that gate. I noticed that both Frankie & Bazinga blew past the last jump to get to the gate to get their reinforcement!!! I think that is a good thing on one hand because it means that they know where the treats are! On the other hand, I’d like them to stay engaged until we finish the course! I’ll st up a better course so that they have to run past the gate and back into the course before we end, so they get some practice at self control. Haha.
If they do miss a jump while we are playing this game, I should keep going, right? Leash them up & take them out for their reinforcement sand just keep working on it?Here are our TSA sessions from today!
Thank you!
Hi Tracy!
Just a little Bazinga update 🙂
I mentioned in Frankie’s thread that she had some stitches from a biopsy & missed the last trial so she’s been on rest. Thankfully we got good news on the biopsy and it is just a crystalized spot. They think maybe from being on prednisone or maybe from an injection. She is all healed up & off restriction!We are working the Scary Three: Running DW, Teeter & Weaves!
I’m still working on transitioning from the MM to a thrown lotus ball for the weaves. I’m kicking myself because she was a rockstar in the weaves with the MM and they fell apart when I tried the transition.
We started back yesterday and ended the session pretty quickly. It was one of those sessions where nothing was working. She was so motivated to do them when we were using the MM & so accurate and once I introduced the ball, she lost confidence & lost her rhythm. I was pretty deflated, but we slept on it. (thank you for teaching us that)
I made things a lot easier this morning by just doing 4 poles. I also think that my timing with the ball is terrible and that makes it confusing for her. Because I wasn’t confident she was going to get all the weaves, I was waiting too long to throw it.
We did a few reps with the MM being the reward to get her happy & motivated & then once I could send her & stay about midway of the 4 poles to throw the ball with good timing, I switched to the lotus ball. I put some surpise treats in there to make it extra good to compete with the MM (lettuce & kibble. Yes, I’m serious). That timing seemed to work better. We had a really good session and she was getting the 4 weaves. She was happy too. That makes all the difference for me!
I’m going to do a repeat of the same session Thursday to see how she does.
Any advice is appreciated!We are working on Track 1 of the teeter. We were able to practice a lot of the end position targeting on a plank while she was resting. I’m going to try to not be sooooo cautious with the rest of track 1 so we can make some progress. She is really comfortable with everything we have done so far with the uphill & downhill.
She LOVES the DW. We are working on finding the sweet spot for her to wrap a wing & consistently hit her squeaky mat. She’s really good on straight exits. Still lots to work on but I’m glad she loves it.
Next steps: I need to sign her up for some classes for more ring experience & sequences. I’d love to get her ready for Agility League in April. We will probably only have a Senior level team, so she won’t be ready for that. I am hoping we have a “fun only” team and I can just FEO her there for experience.
Thank you!! Shit is getting real! Hahahahaha!!!
Hi Tracy!
Sorry fo the big delay in posting! We had a local trial 2 weeks ago. Frankie got to play & Bazinga came to cheerlead. She had to sit this one out because she had a biopsy done & had stitches (biopsy came back with good news! She has a calcified spot on her leg, not a worry. I’m so relieved!). Her stitches are out & she is ready to play!
Here are Frankie’s runs from the weekend. She had a great weekend! I do see though that she did awesome & had the best time herself for runs 1 & 2 and then was less engaged for run 3 on both days.
Here are videos. We played the bowl game and the Remote Reinforcement game before each run. She was barking outside the ring and really had great energy. I threw her frisbee for her after her uns as part of her reward (and sometimes before each run to amp her up too).
Run 1
FAST – I decided to try running FAST for real and not FEO. She was amped! She even played a little with me at the start line!
Run 2 – Standard
She was engaged & fast! It was so fun!
Run 3 – JWW
We had a rough start but she picked up energy halfway. She was not engaged at the start, sniffed the ground and walked out of the weaves. I feel bad that I let her know I was disappoined about the weaves. Should I have just kept going? She got into it after the weaves were done & she was awesome.
Sunday we had 3 runs.
Run 1 – Time to Beat
She was super engaged in Time to Beat – we ran FEO. She knew I had the toy when we went in the ring. I pulled out the toy while she was in the weaves to practice a BC at the end of the weaves. I should have had it out earlier because I distracted her. She had fun though! A little too much fun on the A Frame! Eek.
Run 2 – Standard
I improvised a move after the #3 tunnel (my body took over my brain) and I messed her up. I thought we NQ’d so we ran the rest like we stole it! SHE WAS SO ENGAGED!!! It was a magical run! We actually did Q and got high in class for that run! WOW Frankie! You can hear my friends on the video – LOL
Run 3 – Jumpers
This had a similar start as T2B so I thought it would be more motivating, but I lost her. She was not engaged, so I worked really hard to keep her going. She did it, but it felt very different than the other runs.
I’m still obessing on if it is phyical fatigue, mental fatigue, both, or if everything depends on exactly how well I can get her engaged & in the zone right outside the ring & as we go in to the ring. That said, I really do feel like the Remote Reinforcement plays a big part and by the end of the day it is just really hard to leave the rewards to go in the ring. We are still working on the RR games at home.
Thanks for all your help & feedback!
I’m glad Voodoo is ok! <3
