She must have let that latent learning kick in. Only one time she missed the jump and I ran ahead.
The go 4 ways also went well until I twisted my ankle. Let’s just say I had it set up, but showed up in flip flops. Said I better just go work contacts..
Got distracted to the point that I forgot I had flip flops on and ran the set up. Twisted the foot on the rear cross and well… that’s all she wrote. This aging hormone brain is not good for agility lolIt is a million degree here again and I didn’t have the energy to set up the exact scene but I think it’s close to what it needed to be. Redid my rears and tacked that on the end. I think it’s better but … lol
Looking ahead she’s pretty good at not sure if the lines you focused on were correct when I did it. She’s good at a walk ,but sometimes increasing speed is hard for her. She’s more chase me vs take the jump
I felt good about both the skills and I had zero idea where I was in relation to the line to the tunnel so yeah I knew it could be better. I really need to just practice those for me and maybe drop a toy for her so it’s more me training then her?
Here’s our Rears. I didn’t think well and put the jumps where there was already a tunnel so I could only go one way.
She missed a jump and I just kept going assuming it was me and did a second loop.
The rears seem to feel ok ,
But I’ll wait for your expertise to see what I can clean up!I don’t normally have chase squawking but julee and Chata really lack ability to function in any environment that isn’t sterile bc they get no distraction training so at this point it’s radio on dogs barking etc. Chase did settle quick as he’s learning too 🙂
Seminar didn’t go well not sure if it was heat or pressure or me worrying about reinforcing with out her slipping. She’s also a thinker so that may have been a need to process day, but she was slow barely taking jumps no desire.
I was happy when I came back out to these skills and she has want to again. Backing off stays and more rev up when we start. Stays are good but hard and boring
Fluffy blinds
Blinds to tunnel
20 years of pointing and arms still
Have me. lol!And yes i haven’t been tossing bc of the splat and the time to tape vs the time to train doesn’t make sense on short days like yesterday. I’ll buy some cheese balls and see how she feels. She find the lotus ball meh even if I run with her to it or have good stuff in it. She prefers instant gratification lol!
I’ll be off for a couple days as she’s got seminars with Melanie next days
I moved on and I was like it should not have taken me 4 min to do a circle. I fully intended to do wraps.
Note: it’s been 90-10” degree here. I am not ok. lol!
My favorite moment was when I tried to pass one on border collie and drop a toy down thinking she didn’t see it….Tried our ladder again side view
Had a great training session for get out. Never hit record. The errors are the wraps. She seems to have lost the drive to do them. My guess is the grip. She was wrapped when I did them so I may rebuild them this week but she did completely understand the actual cues 🙂
Forgot the building was set up so winged it with re doing my go, rears and backsides. I omitted the rears bc I literally used the wrong directions and the first 2 reps she turned the way I said not the way I moved. ( good dog. Bang head here)
That said I forgot what I was supposed to with working the wraps. No barrel this time and she seems to be getting it.Yes the next time I revisit I will take out the barrel. I haven’t redone them since.
Here’s my ladder grid. Sorry the reward was out of the photo. Was using food and she seemed blah so I put a toy out and she was like wtf you want me to do with this so I went back to the bowl lol.
I added the barrel for a reminder for the back side wrap. I don’t even remember training it in level 1 but she has a wraparound cue for comes for fitness so I paired that. Work smarter not harder lmao!
I have no idea with the down and figured not strsss or fight her and I didn’t have food on me that round.
She had done it on occasion with some obedience stuff when she’s really excited.
