WEAVE POLES

Weave Entries - Saturday's novice standard course had a difficult entry from the dog walk to the weaves. You may have noticed from Christy's video that she had to do a rear cross into the weaves with Zorro in Novice Jumpers. It is especially important for those of us who are just starting our dogs on weaves to work those entries in the very early stages while the poles are still open. AND to continue to challenge our dogs from other pieces of equipment.

REACHING GOALS
- Today Coffee did 12 weaves on her second try. It was so exciting! I told her she was a genius but I think that belongs to Susan Garrett's method. We began training on Jan 1st!

Sydney,
She is a pro! She had great entries from the jump. I need to remember to incorporate the jump more often.

Nothing to do with weaves - keeping Lea quiet is very difficult.

GREAT JOB!!! When you watch the video, notice Coffee's head position. Also her speed for just starting Coffee is speed is great. Keep it up, and the rest of you will be here soon!!!!
