  1. Place a small tile or similar on the ground about 1.5metres from last board, make sure it is in the middle. Sit your dog up close to the first board, stay your dog, place a small yummy treat on the tile, go to your correct position and direct the dog over the jump when its head goes down to the tile, click and finish. Build it up from that, you will not need food, and you will not need the tile. I say the word "mark" instead of over.
  2. Thanks Luke we did this on our morning walk, she was really good. I dont want to make excuses,but she is in season & the area is a new subdivision,(rabbits etc )but we are striving for perfection.We are giving a "close" command in between open exercises,click & reward heaps . One day showed an improvement.We may have been too relaxed between exercises & she has taken advantage. We are grateful to all responses, Thank you all.
  3. Never do one hour block training, just want to do maybe 3 Open exercises with full attention on me while training. This is achieved in our own yard, just not in distracted new enviroments. Wants to sniff before and inbetween exercises.
  4. We generally say 'your free' which allows her to sniff, however will try 'go sniff' and click/reward when she focuses again. Also will have to increase food rewards in this exercise. Seem to have trouble with the spare time inbetween each exercise. I guess need more focus all around. Being a 22month BC I may be rushing.
  5. Thanks jigsaw. We are starting that today.
