Barrel Wraps and Tunnels

 Pearls:

  • Mind where your body and feet are pointing. Point your body in the direction your dog should go.
  • If you run in a certain direction, your dog will likely run in that same direction. This works for you but can also work against you.
  • "Round, round, round!" cues the dog to collect their stride for a tight turn toward me around a barrel.
  • "Loop, loop, loop!' cues the dog to collect their stride for a tight turn away from me around a barrel.
  • Give Jackie lots of positive feedback. Tell her she's a good girl! Tell her "Yes!" when she gets it!
