Two Jump Drills |

Working a 9 month border collie – is it beneficial to do this now, with the bars on the ground/no bars – to get commitment to go between the stanchions? Or is it okay now to have a really low jump bar at her age? Or should I wait until l can raise the jump bar pretty quickly to her jump height?
I talked to Jenn about this because she’s working with an 8 month old right now! She uses jump bumps between stanchions. As she says “I don’t find much values in teaching the dog sequencing and finding the line if there is no visual of a jump.”
At 9 months, 8-12 inches should be no problem. I always heard not to jump over elbow height before they are full grown.
Thank you.
If I have been using “jump” can I/should I go to “hup”? Especially as I am trying to rebuild her confidence and commitment (Angela and Tikaani)
You can use whatever verbal you’d like. I use “jump”. Lots of my students use “over.” I don’t have anyone that I work with live that uses “hup” but it is perfectly fine. If you think you have polluted “jump” too much and there is too much baggage, retraining would be fine. It depends a bit on what negative responses you are getting to the current command.
How do I reward with food when training in 4” thick grass?
I don’t usually use food in grass, but the few exercises where I do (2×2 training), I use string cheese as I find that it’s bright and easy to see and find. For this particular exercise, the other thing that you could do is have a food bowl on either side of the jump in the arc and drop a piece of food into the bowl.
