Been a few weeks since i last updated you all of my training and what's been going on. So you must be gagging to hear of my progress ( or not ) right? ;)
Well, first of all let me start off by saying over the last 2 days i have learnt 3 new tricks. Circle around mum, do the circle of 8 through her legs and Roll over. They all took me about 15 minutes to learn :) The Roll over is something that mum had tried to teach me for years but i've always felt uncomfortable doing it...until yesterday when mum got some YUMMY hupple Hotdogs out sat there with me guiding me properly.
Agility training is going good...i readily go over/through objects now and just LOVE the A frame and Dog walks. I'm still hesitant on the seesaw but seem to have overcome my fear of the tunnel. Last Thursday was a bad class for me though, there was alot of reactive dogs like me there and we was all going mental! You know what us Terriers are like when we get together right? BOL. Mum did write a thread in the Behaviour and Training Forum.
Today mum expected me to kind of reactive after Thursday's class but i was VERY, VERY good. The hotdogs helped alot on keeping focus and mum was seriously impressed. Anita was too and even got mum to demonstrate an exercise to another owner having difficulties with it. She said i stay glued on mum and my heelwork is excellent. We all had to stand in a circle around Anita and be commanded to stay while the other dogs walked around us. I didn't budge for the whole exercise and i was off lead!!
Mum is taking me again next weekend :) Usually me and Ty have to do alternate weekends but now Ty waits in the car until i finish my class and then he does his CGC training while i stay in the car BOL. Everyone is happy!
