Jean, I can't stop smiling watching Kody go forward without any reservations. Never mind that he had a little problem with the weave poles.. he went all the way to the jump which is much further then the poles.. and took it! You should go back and watch Kody's videos from a while back and rejoice at yours and his progress. Complete makeover! Now, once you've got the dog to send away from you, it takes a bit of practice and figuring out the timing to direct him at a distance.. P.S.: I also really liked Kody's weave poles performance.. once he got into them correctly, ;-).. Olga.
