    We worked on wing wraps and stays last night. I like how easily he generalized the work on the cone to the wing.

    Mini pini in A new location with building further distance away from it for me. He was much better at left than right. But I was very happy with how he worked Through his mistakes.

    We did some more work on the mini pini tonight. I started with them close and moved it out 4 different times. StrykR took it all in stride. He loves this one.

    Last time around with the dish he was making too many errors with cookie in the dish. You got me I’ve got to go put some money in the bank of him leaving that dish till I release him to it. I knew I could cheat and use the MM but wanted to work with the dish here.
    I am actually not driving at all because I just had PRP on my knee and for the next 2 weeks I’m on limited standing time and so run or even trot type activities. So I will probably get out the MM for now so he can drive to it without me. Or if you have another suggestion I’m all ears.

    Decided to go back and revisit some of the handling with just the cone.

    We worked on Threadle Tunnel. I started out using some arm and body motion. Then started to fad the arm movement and do only a slight lean. When watching the video, I realized I did not do the verbal the way I intended. Instead on one slow “In”, I meant to do a Short “In,In”. Sigh

    I don’t know why I’m struggling so much to decide on a backside verbal for him. I have most od my others verbals solidified in my mind. I have ideas but am not set on any of them. And I am worried it will be hard for me to break out of “La,la and Na,na” because thos are whatI use for both RydR Nd DancR

    I will do some more sessions with the feedback above. Thx. We also worked on the Backside drill. I did do both sides but only realized the camera was not on for the other side. So here is what we got. I do like how he thinks through things and deals well with frustration.

    Some of the work we have been doing. I have been fostering toy play just not using it for when we are working skills. Here is his retrieve so far.

    Working on Strike a Pose 3, I realized then when balancing value and having him take the front side of the jump I did not stay by the stantion but was in the middle of the bar.

    Tight Turns 360 work. He is definitely better going one direction.

    StrykR and I did our first round with the new delayed cookies game. I was very happy with his first attempt at this. He really liked this game.

    I am not ready to add the threadle verbal yet as I don’t think he has the commitment to the tunnel yet that I am looking for. But when I do it will be “Heeerre”.

    Some sessions from today.

    We took tunnel training on the road. I took StrykR to my friends barn. Very happy with this!

    I know finding small high value treats is hard for our little dogs. Have you tried, these are tiny tiny. Although they don’t look it in the picture’s.

    We spent some more time doing some Combo Handling. As we have done this before I had really hoped it would go better. I got a little frustrated as you will see. I know I have to work the dog in front of me, but realized we need more foundation work still before I can try to put so many pieces together.
