agility training....


Well he is sooo enthusiastic...again, lovely channel weaves now so close they touch his body and he just dives straight through in a lovely line, well done Flynn-munster. The lad also managed some great 'stars' 'go rounds' and the beginnings of a wing wrap but I can see a possible problem I'm going to have to sort with his toy. In some exercises he works to the toy, in others it is acting as a lure and he's not actually learning the obstacle so 'jump, left jump, left again and a couple of straight jumps into tunnel' sounds good but he's just following his toy with no notion at all of what he's actually learning.
Maybe it doesn't matter at such an early stage and the rest follows but I'm concerned enough to want to sort a clear criteria now for him. Bless him, he's such a lovely lad!
Jette was brill in her part of the training, really driving forward and enjoying herself. She managed the really sharp turn onto the dogwalk really well and fair flew the jumping sequence with 2 pull ins, clever girlie Jette!!
Her mum's such a numptie though and can still only manage an hour with her after Flynn...lightweight, must try harder :)
