Everyone is off having fun at NAC and I’m home in Southern California playing with my novice dogs LOL!!! Perhaps in a few years we’ll be back (here’s hoping for a West Coast NAC again!)
After a couple of tries at the Serp and Serp/Blind, Kimchi was having some trouble committing to jump 4 and was kind of sliding across the face of the jump… was I getting in his way or a commitment issue? I found myself having to babysit that jump so there was no way I was getting around the outside of jump 5 like in Ex. 1! We found the FCs and RCs much easier 🙂
Here is Roux, who is a little less experienced and tends to jump in extension so much so that he kept flanking jump #3 after the first try… I tried dropping the bars to 16″ and that seemed to help… He had a hard time reading the second RC but success in the end.
Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
Can you change the privacy of your videos?
Done, sorry!

Mostly some small handling stuff. You were consistent with both dogs so with improvement on handling/timing, you clean up the turns with both dogs!
Super late in getting these done & posted. But here they are.

Did this feedback last weekend but forgot to share to the website once the upload was done. My apologies.

These were fun. They all went pretty well, but I still struggle with good front cross footwork sometimes. He slows way down for the second rear cross which is typical for him if I stop moving so I wouldn’t run it that way but it was good to try.

Thanks! The front after 5 felt like I was in his way and with your feedback I can see why. I’m glad you added the spin because it’s not something I’m confident with so it’s something I should work on.
I knew I would never try the #1 serp in competition but I tried it anyway. I thought the wrap would be easy because Surf usually wraps well. She didn’t read it as a wrap. I don’t know if she was patterned or if it was something I was doing,
After running the others the rear crosses felt slower and I felt like it wasn’t as clear for Surf. Surprise.
I put out the extra jump then an angled weave approach for extra practice. Sometimes sent to weaves, sometimes didn’t.

Here are Indy’s sequences! We had trouble with the wrap, and she kept slicing it the opposite direction or just not jumping at all/standing in front of it. We finally got it, and we even got the spin! 😉

Flash’s exercises. All on left worked better than I thought it would. I felt like I wasn’t moving enough on the rear cross option.

Oops, here’s my attempts – I linked the same video 2x the first time. I would probably choose the front cross. I had some extra coaching during these exercises trying Jaako’s and trying to use 2 hands for a wrap instead of just 1. I usually just use 1 hand on the wrap with Thumper based on feedback during a seminar that the 2nd hand seems to confuse him. I think I’m becoming even less confident on my wraps, instead of more confident. Also, my apologies for length of videos, I didn’t take the time to learn how to clip my videos before combining them. Thank you so much for your insight! This will be my last submission as I don’t have a place/time to train for the last 2 exercises. I appreciate all the help the Bad Dog team has provided.

Here’s our homework. Looking at the map, I thought fx after 3, and blind after 5, but I surprisingly liked all dog on left option. I guess it would depend how far the wing on 5 was in my way

What happened to the Florida sunshine?! 😉

Thanks. I left Florida a little earlier than planned. Was going to go straight to Perry from there but changed plans. These were good options, really highlighting some of our weaknesses to work on pre NAC. Wraps for sure and blinds. I watched the video and knew you were going to say connect sooner over other shoulder and you did. Recognizing my own problems is a good thing 😉
Here is Casey Jones’ attempts at Week 4. I’m interested to know which you think is the better choice; I think Ex. 4 (reverse spin) felt better to me. https://youtu.be/Tyo0G_m8C2g

Tigger, serp also worked for her: https://youtu.be/IdqXzxGsFIQ
Thumper, I would not use the serp with him, front cross is more our style, was fun to try different options: https://youtu.be/IdqXzxGsFIQ

Thank you Jennifer,
I really appreciate the feedback on the wraps, my coaches were trying to help me do wraps differently, which is what you see in the video, and it felt like they just kept getting worse. I also realize I linked Tigger’s video 2x instead of providing Thumper’s, too. I will link his with a new comment.
Also, I did have some difficulty remembering the details of how to do all the options as I had watched the videos a few days before running them. It was good to watch them again after your review.
Here is my work with Zephyr.
Disclosure- didn’t have a lot of time, so I didn’t watch your videos on how to perfectly execute the sequence- I just read the headers.
I ended up with an extra- front/front. It’s what my body did instead of the front to blind the first try.
Other than that- I did everything only once!
The one thing I know I would fix is the turns on 3, particularly when I’m staying behind the line for the serps and wrap.
Thanks so much!

Also forgot to say 🙃, I did go back and watch the videos later and realized i put the blind in the wrong place! I thought the was an interesting choice, 🤣🤣🤣
