kallistar Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 The end of our first week with the Michelle Pouliot Course & things are going good Now on to Step 2 of the Stationary Duration Attention Exercises & introducing the four heel positions, left, right, front & behind. Still with little to no distractions. Hoping by next week I will be able to fade out the hand cue & just use a verbal to put her into position. How is your dwd training going now Sheena ?

Tassie Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Shhhh, don't say they're that close!!! I haven't really sorted out my routine yet, nor a costume!!! :laugh: You're not alone there PME. I'm staring to panic a tad now - I do have music edited - and some ideas ... but choreo is still a work in progress - have ideas about costume (will be simple) - props - likewise. Why did I enter 2 dogs in 2 xlasses each??? Time is an issue - just finishing an online course - working slot - at the Fenzi academy - great!! but tine consuming - and dogs have a busy calendar - Rally and obedience trials last week, agility doubles this weekend and next weekend ... gulp! @ sheena - that course looks really interesting. Hope she offers it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheena Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 We havn't done much now for at least a week, as I have been too busy with the agility trial. But it did give me good opportunities to practice her attention exercises in a very distracting environment. She was all eyes for me so I would say that the DWD course is also helping with her other activities :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also ask for ideas on here for costumes.. that is part of the reason this is here, to help everyone in DWD. I am toying with the idea of entering the April DWD.. but I might chicken out Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 As Ness said, sometime you have just wing it. Oh I do hope so!!! I have music, sort of (rather uninteresting costumes) and some ideas - but .... putting it all together ....hmmmm. Busy all weekend at agility trial - and last weekend. And now getting ready to leave on Wednesday. Chickening out is looking better and better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ness Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Tassie - well you know the success I had on NYE with winging it so Kenz says no chickening out with Cousin Rory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
