Using this Thursday Thirteen to document some run thru notes:
- Jackie boy, need to stop turning into him.
- Jackie got swayed by the smell of treats, during certain exercises, on Evelyn's hands. Need to stop him from breaking from obvious food.
- Jackie broke when unexpected military man came in the room. However, Jackie did stay in place in sit (broke in down) when between two very cute female dogs (one Italian grey hound, and one Chihuaua named Sassy).
- Jackie, we need to work on our finish now without luring.
- Jackie, need to stop him from trying to covertly sniff the ground for fallen treats.
- Jackie, attention could be better when in the stays. He does it well, until something unexpected comes along (military man, or he's between two cute girls).
- Jackie, stopped sticking his stand due to cookie smell on Evelyn. Need to make sure he sticks this, and stays even if judges have been touching cookies:)
- Devon, work on Stand AND Finish.
- Devon concerned about judge following or others working with their dogs. Some of this will be worked out in run thrus, but need to get him out more in public "dealing".
- Brie, work on circles to get her turned in and closer, as Evelyn showed.
- Brie, did her first off leash heel that went okay. We had done one before, when I thought she wasn't ready but instructor insisted. Hadn't gone that bad, but two instances where Brie was pretty sure it was play time.
- Brie, her front is perfect. Need to not screw it up.
- Brie, need to work on finish, and stand walking behind and examine.
****Me 1) No stepping into dogs 2) work on about turns still---better with Jackie and horrible with other two 3) move out with Jackie during fast heel, so judge can tell pace has changed even though Jack just lengthens his stride .......
