I had trouble with the blind. Commitment issues 😆. Anyway we are working on it. It also got hot. So we all slowed down.

Thank you so much for all of your help! The feed back I have received is helping a lot with my handling and showing me the skills the dogs and myself need to be successful!
I’m so glad! 🙂
Here are our nested course exercises. I have a question though. Is there a reason that a blind after the push at #2 is the better handling option? In hind sight I think the push and keeping our dogs on left to the tunnel might have been a faster route for us. We tried to stick to the video example….just curious though.

Thanks, Sarah! We will work on getting past that wing on the blind!
The Rooster struggled with that exercise a couple of times in the beginning which was weird because he read the backside/blind really well on last weeks exercises. The tunnel might have been a factor though. He is only 2, so sometimes that tunnel is a BIG distraction for his baby boy brain!!
And, we love our timers too (it was a great ‘used’ find!)….it’s very helpful to have that immediate feed back when we are trying different handling on the same course setup!
We are loving this prep course! We practice alone at our place and it has been so great to have these practice sessions! Thanks again!
I’m so glad you’re enjoying it!!!
Fun exercise. Tried a few different ways.

Thank you Sarah…I see exactly how my footwork at the one fc in the serp is making the dogs both go wider. Totally understand your explanation and will work on that.
Hi Sarah,
Hmmm. On my setup, going from 3 to 4 was not a gimme. It needed a quite strong tunnel brake, as you’ll be able to see from my video. I tried it a few ways but was standing around watching 6 for a long time. I think I really do need to learn how to cue and go a bit better….

Thanks,

Oh Good! I get to slip this in before you these sessions. After the previous video, I wanted to try to leave much faster (help create a better turn). Here is my attempt; I think it went well.

TY Sarah. I felt like I was behind on both the blind & FC!
Here’s our challenge run, again turn at jump 6 was wider than I like it to be.

Can you change this from private to unlisted? TY!
Done!

This was a great sequence to play with serpentines on! Here is video of our work, looking forward to your feedback. Thanks!

Thank you! I’ll experiment with doing these landing side blinds early as that definitely makes sense. I also need to be better about staying closer to the wing on backside blinds and such…I tend to go wide (not sure why 🤷♀️) so I need to work on fixing that! Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!

These are two of our attempts at the Challenge sequence. He is running slow for him. He is very insecure about a back side slice with a blind cross. We tried it with little success. After a couple of failures, he will shut down on me and I can’t get him to run at all. I finally did get him to try the sequence without a blind cross (the second clip), and I remembered to front cross after 4 which made for much better turns through the serpentine. My verbal cues were not good, though. By the time I said “wrap” he was already done. I didn’t need two cues anyway.
I think, for now, I may have to leave out trying a back side slice with a rear cross, and just work on training the skill. What would you advise in this circumstance?

I meant with a blind cross, sorry.

Again, thank you for your constructive and helpful feedback. I really appreciate your telling me how to incrementally build Toby’s backside slice skill. I tend to hang back until I see him commit to the jump because his typical mistake is going to the backside, but missing the jump altogether if I keep running. I will back up and just work on the backside skill itself around the clock and then build up (as you have explained) to doing the slice with motion. I think I just need to spend a bit more time at each level of the skill and not rush the progression too much. Thanks so much for helping me learn.

Yippee!!! Had all my jumps staked down and managed to get thru this before the wind knocked it over again!! Working hard to reconnect on the backside blinds and cue some collection as we do the return pass on the serp 👍

Hopefully the handler’s timing is improving on the push to BL since we did Jennifer’s exercises. Been practicing with and without dog.

Very valuable feedback on timing and position of push. This makes total sense now that you pointed it out. I’m going to practice running with dog instead of ahead and will let you know how it goes.
