Jackie has graduated into Agility 3 class! Today we played obstacle discriminations and barrel loops, and played with using the lotus ball to reinforce Jackie for her enthusiasm.
Pearls:
- Cue discrimination obstacles as early as possible
- When cueing barrel loops, pivot on your inside foot and keep your new opposite driving hand up to clearly indicate Jackie's line to her
- Jackie likes chasing a treat tossed on the ground, and is learning to associate the lotus ball with the treats inside
