Lol! When Don gets home tomorrow I'll get some video proof :P

And as an update, Dodger is up to doing both arms in a row without a lure. Little Rafa man is one arm, really low w/ a chair as a block and a lure. He's trying really hard though, but just wants to do 'sit' and 'down'. To be fair, he just mastered those recently and is super excited to do them.. constantly.. even when I'm looking at something else..

Since I was on a roll with Dodger I also started him on 'rebound'. Why you ask? Because I hate my body and really want a 70lb dog hurling himself off me.

Awww Rafa, love that boy. Sits and downs are super amazing.

Also, you are nuts for teaching Dodger to do rebounds! Zuma throws me back and she's only 24lbs. Also, I desperately want to see this.

I will try for video of that too! I think if I brace myself really well it will be okay..

Ok, so when I was out with Didgie tonight I decided to just try it and see if she actually would jump over my arms outside, while amped up. That's a yes.

She was doing 6 jumps in a row and only slammed into my face a couple of times!

I got a video today!

So, just for the record, the way she jumps straight at my head? Kinda scary.

Edit: I'll figure out why the videos aren't working tomorrow.
Edit#2: Just kidding, I figured it out.

You guys rock. Didgie scares me. Dodger needs more space. And those PJ pants are awesome.

I'll see about getting video tomorrow. So incredibly busy lately with school and taxes and life. Ugh.

I need to get a video, but Art has got this one! ^_^

Does anyone elses dog have a certain direction they like to go?

Art doesn't care so we started right arm, around the back, then the left arm. Talon will do it but always wanted to go the wrong direction when he got over the rigth arm, so we switched to going left arm first, around the back, right arm. weirdo lol
