    Was able to get some floor time at training center today.

    We worked on the Pillbug, Push and pull (I really need to just keep doing some work on just 2 wings), and 3 jumps with your suggestions from out last video.

    We did some work with the ladder grid. Its starting to get more difficult to do the stuff in my limited space. I sure hope some of the snow melts so I can do some outside.

    Finally felt up to doing some training to video. We worked on the
    Turns out of tunnel, on this one I definitly found I need to work some more on forward “run”.
    And the we did the setpoint with moving target. I started at 10 inches and then moved to 12.

    I’m all signed up for Max Pup 2. Not sure when I’ll get to start with my second knee surgery Dec 19.
    Recovery is going slow but sure. I was finally able to stand long enough to work on some stays.
    My timing of markers and movement is a little off (must be the drugs, https://youtu.be/bgVqWYN4oA4?si=rFuUqzIwyvWzb0xY

    I also wanted to show that we do have retrieval of toys. But he is not great working for them and I don’t mind just using them for play.

    I soooooooo missed making the trip to Florida for the US Open.

    Thanks for the Adolescence info!!
    So I went to my last trial before surgery. Took PoweR along one day and did some remote cookie work in the parking lot.

    So I’m in a funk. With double partial knee replacements coming up the pain is making me very short tempered and Cranky. PoweR turned one today and is definitely suffering from teenage brain. I think I need a brain camp video on this particular stage to help me NOT want to kill him. Heavy sigh.
    We worked on a little remote reinforcement and pivot.

    So we worked on more proprioception and threadle wraps. I’m a little biased but these were brilliant!

    We worked on some more rocking horse with the side sends. As per his usual, going counterclockwise produced more barking and slower performance. But we did get a rhythm going at one point.
    Just an FYI I am going to be getting a partial Knee replacements on my left leg Nov 14 and right leg Dec 19. Yup had to cancel US Open yet again this year. I have no idea what I’ll be able to attempt training wise with PoweR but hoping you will help me modify as best we can.
    Also why I didn’t jump on the live one on one 😢.

    We did a little training. I’m still struggling with motivation to work with PoweR I think I need more live classes.

    Got back from my trip to the Quilt retreat this afternoon. Threw together a short training session. I get to go to an ISC trial Sat with StrykR.

    Here is Parallel Path. He is definitely better on my left side.

    On the Tunnel I left the whole session so you could see all his antics. He is quite the mountain goat. He finds it harder to find the entrance of the tunnel on my right side from an angle and went around the back of the tunnel a number of times.

    Opps was trying so hard to get it all sent while packing. Here is the Tandem Turn video.
    I was pretty happy with how he did in all of these videos. I wish my husband understood more so he could drain some stuff while I was gone, but alas all I can maybe get him to work on is the stays.

    Got out to do a few of week three skills. I will be leaving in the morning for a week long Quilt retreat with no dogs. So any training PoweR gets will be from my hubby.
    Resilience games. Objects were a pink spray bottle and one of his Frisbees

    Stays

    Tandem turns

    Handling combos
    With these I realized I did not use the “Ready” between reps. I think he would have been better if I had remembered that.

    Worked on some of this weeks homework.
    Backing up – we have done some in the basement so this was new location.

    Turn and Burn. Working on his less preferred direction. Counter Clockwise.

    Rear Cross intro. These did not go well. We will keep trying

    Back from the Vet Conference. It was raining outside so we had to work inside.

    So I have a short video to share. I had raised my dogwalk to full height for a friend to use. I did not encourage or teach this. Needless to say I don’t think we have any worries about the plank.
