Agility work this morning

Got up early and went over to Dog City to do some work on obstacles I don’t own.  Especially since Dulce is falling further and further behind in agility class between illnesses, etc.

Best news!  Dulce weaved on their weave poles TWICE!  I set up my channel weaves for her when I first got her.

Bad news!  I rewarded her with a new toy each time I got it.  She wouldn’t come back.  The first time, I got Macy out, and she followed Macy into a tunnel and I could grab her.  Second time, no dice.  She finally got tired and bored.

Teeter is going well with both dogs – I focused on having both of them go up the plank – and having them down.  Dulce is going all the way up, but not downing.  Macy is downing. 

Dulce is gladly going through tunnels, played a bit with tire, didn’t get anywhere.

Worked table with both dogs, Dulce is going to the table and downing automatically.  Macy has all three behaviors going – table down, table sit, and table stand – yes, I’m training that since we’re probably going to do some Teacup and that will be legal in AKC in a few weeks.

Since I discovered that the recall problem is REALLY bad, I worked in the red room with recalls and crates. 

I’ve got a massage this afternoon and class tonight – and since it was a bit cooler (only 90 degrees), we already got our walk over for today.
