Heidii Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Thanks Laffi! "Does he know front and rear crosses?" I dont think so lol, well i've never trained it "Do you know how to execute them?" umm, no, lol! I think i will have to do some training myself! Any documents online that you can recommended reading regarding these handling issues/how to's etc? "In the class, when you said there were 5 jumps, are they in a straight line or is it a GD box?" In a circle Thanks Laffi, gives me something to think about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a circle Thanks Laffi, gives me something to think about! I would recommend you watch GD's DVDs (esp if you can borrow them from your club). They are awesome BTW there is at least one, mostly two or three crosses at the novice level courses, so you definitely need to feel comfortable with these.

Kavik Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Sometimes you can get away with just front crosses (I try to ) though the one where we actually qualified we did a rear cross! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smisch Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 heidii what comp style are you planning on doing CCCQ or ADAA?? If your doing CCCQ, I am most likely doing the Jimboomba Dog CLub trial you're welcome to come down with your dog and hang out with Jock and I for the day.. I may not have as much expierence as some people on here lol But i can atleast show you the ropes.. We're doing novice agility and excellent jumping and proabably the open courses!! Ill just fill you in on something as Vickie could probably remember my first embarassment of a trial, I'd only trained for 6 months and decided I had to enter a trial.. We did 3 obsticals and ran out the ring because I hadn't trained enough without food and enough sequencing Day 2 was alot better but beacause of my rushedness I had 12 months of DQs... Not saying thats gonna happen to you but be confident in you and your dogs abilities.. its great expierence but don't push too hard!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
