Learning to Weave
I want to try and video all our sessions, mostly so I can criticize my timing, which is generally awful.
Dog Vegas July 2012
I was really happy with our runs on Friday. We didn’t have a “perfect” run and that kept us from the placings, but our times weren’t far off. Most worrying run was in the first class. Sat watching, a few…
Rio Contact Training
This was Rio’s third time on the board, and this is her whole session. She’s maybe done 10-15minutes total, at this stage? No luring, no targeting, no physical placement from me. I’m happy! I added a lot more movement in…
Rio Recalls

Ribble March 2012
Resultswise, not such a good show. We didn’t bring home a single rosette. It also rained consistently. Apart from that, it was awesome. I entered Kim and Dylan, and didn’t know if Kim would want to play or if Dylan…
Winter Season Review
I spent a couple of hours on Monday reviewing the videos from the weekend, as I always do, but also reviewing the videos from the winter series as a whole. That’s why it took me a couple of hours rather…
Start Lines
[singlepic id=326 w=320 h=240 float=right]Inspired by HippieDogs, of course, and somewhat by my previous musings on whether to get a collar for Kim’s starts. I haven’t talked about my start lines in a long while. Kim has a running start,…
