Thanks for the collar reminder! That really helped her be a bit more drivey about the wrap practice. We’re definitely still in the early stages of learning the wrap verbals, but after a long weekend away for a nosework trial I thought we’d have some fun outside with the wind in your hair game. I got myself turned around a few times on which way to wrap and realized I was cuing the equivlent of a backside lol. And my other verbals were a hot mess… I need some mechanics planning before I do these games.

Questions here beyond generalfeedback:
1) I feel like she’s still just barely committing to the jump and really cuing that off my movement to it, do I stay at this baby stage until she’s more clearly making the decision to take jump?
2) for the more advanced version when we get there– you talk about “go go go”. I use “go” as a jump cue. I’m guessing your go go go is more of a go fast and long in whatever direction (I maybe use “go on” for this though haven’t introduced her to that yet).
