What in the World is the Difference Between "Round Round!" and "Loop Loop?"

 Pearls:

• "Round round!" indicates to the dog to collect her stride and turn tightly around the obstacle toward the handler.
• "Loop loop!" indicates to the dog to collect her stride and turn tightly around the obstacle away from the handler.
• For weaves, proof to the point where you can point directly at the first weave entry from anywhere and the dog independently adjusts to correctly enter the weave poles.
• Gradually increase my speed ahead of Jackie so she weaves faster.
• A foundation exercise for weave entries: Begin with just two poles and click and throw the lotus ball reward to reinforce each correct entry.
• For proofing weave entries, use four poles and start with the first two entry poles at an easier angle.
