Weave Entries

Today we played weave entries, reinforcing correct entries and learning how to gradually proof entries around the clock face.

  • The goal is to correctly enter the weaves from any position of the clock face.
  • Increase the difficulty of the entry angle very gradually.
  • Throw the lotus ball farther out in front of Jackie so she wants to chase it. This reinforces speed and ensures it doesn't collide with her.
  • Throw or give the reinforcement with the opposite hand from your cueing hand (today we cued with the dog on the handler's right). 
  • Mark on the ground each successful spot on the clock face to specifically increase the difficulty of the entry angle.

Very gradually progressing the difficulty of weave entry angle:
