Dylan worked really well at training this week, and I feel like we’re seeing some improvement now. The boy can really move when he wants to, just need to get the handler sorted now. I have to be early<\/em> with my cues and verbals to get the tight lines, otherwise he just picks a jump or a line to take and goes for it. Whilst I’m happy that he’s confident enough to take obstacles as he feels like it, it’s not going to get us any places!<\/p>\n

\"5-9<\/a><\/p>\n

Because he was working so nicely we played with this sequence a bit, because the first time we ran the course everybody thought it should be done in a different way. My first attempt was the blue path, but I wasn’t strong enough with my left command and Dylan just carried straight on to 9 and skipped 8 entirely. I was no where near quick enough for the red path, and Dylan isn’t very sure about jumping towards me at the moment so I skipped that one. We finished off with the black path being the best for us, it was further for me to run but Dylan got a much nicer, tighter line around 6-7-8. One person also tried handling the whole thing on the left, pushing over 5 and the pushing out again for 8 after 7. I might have been tempted to give that a go with Kim but not with Dylan, we’d have gone off-course over the un-numbered jump.<\/p>\n

Hopefully this weekend at EMDAC he’ll be working as well as he did at training. He’s going to be my focus for Saturday, Kim is really only there on the off-chance she can pick up some points (more on that in a later post, I think!). Waldridge Fell is Kim’s priority this weekend. I’m really looking forward to going up North again and seeing Cat<\/a> again, and Kim is doing Pairs with Bailey<\/a> again too which should be fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
