I think on Friday I will post the next trick and that will be the last day to submit videos for the current trick.

As far as the next trick goes, is everyone ok with spin? This can be done bidirectional, or you can just work on one direction. Lure or free shape. It's another great one for conditioning and stretching, a great warm up for physical activities.

Spin is a great idea - we have one direction going ok, but I can start working on the other direction. I better get a move on with sit pretty lol! I'm annoyed I came in so late! House-sitting with no net!

Ok, Juno's beg is adorable and she's doing it so good!

Here's Didgie today. Mainly I just wanted to get her outside and doing it around distraction.

Haha, thanks!

I wanted to do another session last night, but didn't because I didn't want to make them too sore. And this morning we had our weekly private lesson, so hopefully can get some video tonight when I go home to eat dinner!

Totally down for doing spin for the next one! Thats something we haven't done at all yet, so should be fun.

Also everyones' dogs are ADORABLE and making great progress! Didgie is like a boss!

I'm down for spin! Zander has one direction pretty solid, but the other we have issues with.

Didgie and Zinga make me want a K/Coolie. So. Bad. The work ethic!

Ok, sessions 1 and 2. I decided to go with targeting. My target stick is huge lol - I never got around to making or getting a smaller one.
I'm very happy with Abby's targeting but not so happy with my positioning of the target!



Sorry about the cutting off of her cute little head in the second video.



Edit - Ok, all fixed now. We had a lot of fun this morning. Will see how we go again this afternoon.
