Lesson 10, Exercise 1 - Dusty Take 2

I set the course up for Lesson 10 on Feb 23rd.  We were able to use it for two days before the weather went North on us big time.  Enough snow has finally melted that I felt we could go out and give this another go.  I was very pleased that Dusty was able to do the final three jumps without looking back at me.

Jaldi - Lesson 10 Exercise 1

We tried Lesson 10 Exercise 1 last night. Jaldi got a little distracted which happens rather frequently, so we need to solve this problem.

Lesson 10, Exercise 1 - Libby

Because Libby is a rather low-drive dog, I usually don't lead out with her, even though she is capable of holding a stay at the startline.  The first time I ran this with Libby, she went barking on past the weaves toward jump 8.  Barking as she runs past the weave entry is a problem we frequently have in a trial setting.  I hope we can resolve this issue since she will soon be running in Excellent JWW, and we are already struggling to make time on NADAC elite standard courses.  Additionally, Libby often jumps so wide that she gets beyo

Lesson 10, Exercise 1 - Dusty

Here is video of two of our attempts at Exercise 1 of Lesson 10.  Dusty's contacts have been a problem for more than a year.  I decided to try having him sit on the A-frame as Susan was having Gwen do.  Another problem Dusty has is "Go."  He insists on head checking and/or curving back toward me.  A problem I had was over-managing his approach to the jumps.  He was running a tight line and then I got the brilliant idea of trying to use the claw.  As you can see, I pulled him off several jumps doing this.
