Awwwk! It’s time to remember the focus is wins within the run. That was kinda sorta the point with Edie’s Novice Queen Supreme – aka known as Silly Title. The skills we developed in that quest eventually led to her Masters title. Learning is Infinite.
What went well:
An engaged, confident dog.
Teeters – she worked the pivot with full understanding.
A-frames – she’s came up and over the apex without doing a ‘oversee’.
Came back and kept working (mostly from a glance rather than an investigation).
What needs more work:
Table criteria, we need criteria other than getting on, waiting for the count and leaving. By then she’s busy ‘shopping’, rather than ready to leave.
Some of my lines are wiggly! Stop trying to shape some things and let her do what she knows how to do.
Weave entries…whether it’s my stupid shaping or visual distraction, these need work.
At a trial:
Don’t put her back in the weaves.
Blue mat with treat box.
Snuffle in the crate.
Stay connected at all times! Don’t look around even for a split second!!
