Participant> talking or putting the toy down were a little confusing to him unless you were repeating the wait cue
“Taylor Swift lyrics” haha. 😉 *Honestly that’s my anthem. I strongly identify with a meme i saw, “you don’t know how much time and money i have put in to be this bad at dog agility” (Video of person tripping over their dog).Liz Barlow
ParticipantOh i thought i’d posted this but I didn’t. I did a second discrimination session on saturday and we definitely did better than the first time.

Participant> This is a pillbug:
Oh we call them slaters. (Pron: Slay-ters) I haven’t known them to roll up before but they’re the same lil lobster guys – according to the internet. (THey’re Introduced and not native), i’ll have to see if i can get one to roll up next time i shake it out of my tunnel hahah)
Weta are a different beastie altogether, the females will bite! (Same sister)Liz Barlow
ParticipantHope you’ve had a great weekend!! I managed to sneak a wee session of set point and the wait is coming along!
Liz Barlow
ParticipantIn answer to your question, no I don’t think we do have pill bugs! We do have weta…. which are huge and aren’t cute.
I had your video of your beautiful blinds in my head … this was not that…. haha. At least this angle shows how slipped my training area is….I blame the slope at one point for all my late blinds. Hehe. This one time o didn’t feel the connection I did last time.

ParticipantArgh… I know the keeping my arm back thing…I think about the keeping my arm back thing…. then every time….my body fails. I did once have a trainer who suggested i run with my hands in my back pockets… haha. Got a clear round running like that (a million years ago)

ParticipantTunnel directionals. I was pretty sure it was me being static that caused the problem with the wing wrap at the beginning… so i need to value build the wing more without motion? then I afflicted with a terrible case of the flappy arm.

ParticipantPill bug! It took ages to haul my 5m tunnel into the training area and sandbag it in place with my 1m tunnel. I also displaced a number of bugs in the process! This was a super fun game.

ParticipantI’m here! I’m there (in Maxpup 2), I’m everywhere! (Also you make soo much great content!)
Here we are working on the threadle wrap. I tried initially with the bin but barry kept clonking his head on the handle, so tried with pop up bin, but that was too big for me to work out my mechanics, so here we are with a wing, I’ve got the wing turned to make it super easy for him to have success with turning away from me. And i paid a lot for just standing between me and the wing, cos he found that scary. (when i find the time, i will do some two bowl game with him going through some narrow spaces. 🙂 )

ParticipantOh also… my tunnel is only 1m, it looks really scrunched but it’s just the top. The base is pegged flat. (It was originally a collapsible tunnel but the chute was cut off once they were made illegal

ParticipantThank you for this!!! Such great feedback. I knew some reps felt right but others didn’t but couldn’t figure it out.

Thank you for the reminder that it’s me, hi, I’m the problem is me. HeheLiz Barlow
Participant>> A question: what kind of ear buds and phone or tablet are you using.
These are my sony ear buds with my Samsung s24fe. I usually use my Samsung FE ear buds.
The trick is using the “professional” video setting and making sure it is picking up sound only from the Bluetooth.Liz Barlow
ParticipantDiscrimination. Mwah this did not go as beautifully as your video. https://youtu.be/-M3p6Ol45bc?si=P66Fb1Gd680pzuKd
At about 1.43 I remembered I was supposed to move to help the puppy. Then did a rubbish job rotating on the wraps. Struggling with my body.Liz Barlow
ParticipantWoohoo went down to club and did some training. Lots of firsts, first time being asked to wrap a wing, first time using my new directionals outside of the lounge, first time trying three things in a row!
There was also a lot of noisy barking and others training and he did so well! I had one bail out when someone came to stand next to my tripod but I got him back.
First session: using directionals on a wing wrap, adding distance then adding tunnel.
Second session: smiley face

Participant>> caught in the pool of scent from the treat
Definitely, I saw the head snap on the video which I didn’t see in the moment.The physio checked him and yeah he had some tight spots, most likely caused by a certain heffalump brother with emotional regulation issues humping him! And he was a little tighter on one side, which made sense for his difficulty bending on the cookie stretch.
