Macy is very different – rally fun match

Sometimes she is almost like a border collie. She has always been able to learn by watching other dogs which is not always good. she learned almost all of marcie’s tricks by watching marcie doing them. i dont want her learning much of maggie’s stuff

i took her to a rally fun match last friday but have been too busy to post much about it. we got there real early so i hung out and watched and visited with the trainers.

i ended up doing open and did a reasonable approximation which wasnt bad since we had trained for it. we also did a better approximation of the novice course.

hers the wild part. she loves rally. i think she likes any opportunity for positive reinfocement.

marcie hated it and especially learning to heel. anything that had to be repeated bothered her but not macy. she’ll do it over and over.

so i might have a rally dog.
