The dogs had a great time running around at my sister-in-laws place yesterday. I worked Baxter a bit on control and circle work. It was minimal but I think the boys had a good time just playing.
When we got home today, I decided to take Ripley out back as it has been a while since he has worked. First we started with weaves. I put the 6 poles straight today and they were all staked. I started with offside entries and Rip had no problem finding the entry, just didn't understand to go through all 6, popping out after 4. Once he got it, he did some amazing entries both onside and offside. I decided to put a jump in front of the weaves, and wow, he did it even better. Either onside or offside at any angle up to 90 degrees Rip was able to find the entry and go. I then added 2 jumps parallel to the weave poles. I had his jump both jumps and then turn into the weave entry, he did this from both sides. He was knocking the bar more than he ever missed an entry.
I then moved onto jumping. I am finding that the PVC jump that I borrowed from Andrea is not working for him. I know that sounds stupid but he almost always takes that jump down :( I just don't get it. He did keep them up during some hard stuff but really am worried about his jumping.
