I was bored the other day so thought I'd shape it the other way...clockwise. Boy did that blow his little brain!!!!!!

:D Same with Ruby!! She can do anti-clockwise, stepping into me as I rotate left, but try and get her to go right, it just wasn't happening :) I wanted to get her to go the other way because her fronts are always a little off to the one side, so getting her to be able to move her bum to her left would help get those fronts a bit straighter but bugger me if I could get her to do perch work in that direction :laugh: One would think that would be the easiest direction to teach :)

Home from the rally seminar. Lincoln had moments where he was working well (for a dog who has only been very lightly obidience trained) but found all the birdies around a tad distracting. :laugh:

I think Lincoln had jumping beans for lunch :) His enthusiasm at the end was great ;)

Ruby and I had a great time. We were expected to complete the 3 rounds as if they were real trials, so had it been the real deal, Ruby would have earned her Rally Novice (RN??) title today :D ValleyCBR got my 3 rounds on video for me, so I will upload to youtube as soon as she is able to send them to me :rofl: Ruby ended up with her own cheer squad on the sideline, it was hilarious and certainly was a feelgood moment :)

Naughty Beagle!!!!!!! I vote for stays to be thrown out, they are useless and cause us to lose some nice quallies :) So glad to hear that her ringwork was lovely, so lots of positives yay :laugh::laugh:

I agree - get rid of the bloody stays :):rofl:

Just saw one of the vids - Ruby looked like she worked really well :D You too as I imagine doing rally takes a bit of thought to get through the course well :rofl:

Well Done to everyone who trialed this week-end especially Nic and the awesome Ella and Bec and the amazing evil beagle :):)

Thanks so much Maree, I couldn't have done it without you, I appreciate all that you have done (and continue to do) for me more than you know ;)

Here is Lincoln's first effort at Rally, will add the second when the clip is uploaded. Be kind. Today was about me learning how to read rally signs and walk a course, I am not so deluded to think we are less then a year at least off being ready! :laugh:

Well it wasn't too bad to follow, except I did a wrong turn in one and lost a whopping 10 points in one hit! Never mind the fact that it was a decent turn :) Blew a 98 with that dummy handler error :laugh: I'd be kicking myself had it been a real trial :)

So RS are you going to enter the first Rally-O trial now that you are an old hand at it? :laugh: When is the first trial?

I also did this, the sign said circle 360 left and I went right. :) It's so easy to do. My third run I NQ'ed but got a score. of 58. :)

Yeah I think I will when/if it ever gets accepted and we start having trials here in WA :laugh:

The beauty of it is I am training for it when I'm training traditional obedience anyway. I will just practice a few of the extra moves they throw in rally while I'm out training regular stuff. If it was a whole new sport where I had to go and learn all new things, I would be hesitant.

The last one was a volunteer. I videoed the first two. :D Me and RS drew 19th and 20th so we had to find someone else to film. :)
