Well, we set up grids this morning and blasted through them to a toy. All good fun and hopefully helped Jake to remember where his feet are. After grid we worked on speed over the dog walk using the treat and train to reward remotely.
Young Lexie also worked her socks off for Angela - clever cocker spaniel!

This weekend
Jakey boy got 2nd places at Gillingham Show. One agility one jumping. We need to practice jumping grids at 5 paces though as he still rushes this distance. Lucy and Dash also did really well with 3 lovely rounds and a 3rd place in agility. Rich really enjoyed his jumping round with Paddy too. :-)

Walk the plank!
In order to pair up Jake's nose target and walking on the wobble board I need to ensure jake is comfortable with the board and knows to walk onto it from end to end.
Clicker work preparation
Several piles of 10 treats in a pot, plenty of spares on the plate. Clicker and target at the ready!

Stand still Jack!
I started off this evening with step 1 of teaching Jack a visual cue for a sit. Sit is his current default behaviour so step one is to reward a new base position which is to be A stand in front of me. I was counting the length of time between clicks in my head to ensure each stage was rewarded.
