Weaves and Serpentines

 Pearls:

  • When telling your dog to turn with "Here!" be sure your physical cues and body are turning to direct the dog along her path-- think of using a laser pointer to show Jackie her line of travel
  • CUE EARLIER
  • When doing serpentines, the handler needs to get themselves turned faster, directing the dog's line of travel
  • The lotus ball continues to be a great reinforcer to keep Jackie's focus forward with the weaves
  • Independent weaves are great but also learn to get beside Jackie because when you're in a course you're going to need to tell her where to go on the other end of the weaves
