I have a couple of days work in this video. We start out each practice with a run at the teeter & a big treat. I lowered the tip assist a little tonight. Then we moved on to other things.
How’s this for the paw touch work? I remembered I picked up an extra piece of that rubberized material used for DW & platform boxes from one of the vendors at the NAC. They had remnants they were giving away.
Here’s tonight’s work. I tried to get the toy delivered early on the wrap work. He got better as the reps went on.
I worked Indy this morning on the teeter. I left in all the times he ran up the board without me. I think that’s showing confidence? I lowered the bar a little during the session.
Then we worked on the blinds to wraps. He did good but I seem to be getting confused. Anyway it was taking me a while to figure I out the footwork & he was getting bored.
Trying to do less movement since it’s so hot outside. The tandem turn work fits the bill. I think it’s a little better. These seem to be threadles to me but maybe I’m doing them wrong.
We worked the 3 wingladder this morning. I tried to remember to not step back. We also worked the tandem turns f more on the teeter. He seems to be slowing down. Is that just a confidence issue that will get better as he grows?
Oh my gosh. When I actually watched the video I was thinking “what the heck am I doing with my arm”???
Went back out this morning & started with the blind move. I struggled at first but I think we got it. We did some teeter work after that. I thought the end of the board was stable but it dropped all the way to the ground Indy kinda tumbled off. I left in a lot of the video after that which I would normally have cut out so you could see how he responded. He likes cream cheese! I was putting his kibble on it but he was mainly licking the cream cheese off the plate rather than eating his food.
We started out with the racetrack tonight & then moved to the tunnel with 1 wing. We didn’t get the blind cross done. Will start with that tomorrow morning. As much as I like summer the heat hampers our practice time.
Back from a work conference in Chicago. If I had known you were going to be there teaching a seminar this past weekend before I bought the ticket for my flight, I would have changed plans & flown up earlier! Anyway, here is Indy’s beginning work on the Wingin’ It games.
We went back out tonight to try to implement your suggestions from yesterday’s work. I felt we had some good reps & bad reps in every exercise!
On the teeter I think he’s defaulting to the behavior for the dogwalk which is 2o2o.
On the driving ahead he did a couple of real nice ones at the farthest distance & then started coming in instead of going over. I’m not sure what happened there.
