Saturday, February 25
This week in class we continued our work on rear crosses.  Building on what was done in previous weeks, improving our dogs and our skills.   The building of teamwork.

Am exercise was done doing GO's to the table and over a line of jumps.  More teeter work was done with two teeters added to the exercise.  
During the week, practice your rear crosses without equipment.  We have done this in the past but here is a quick reminder.  Sit your dog in front our you.  You take a couple of steps back (directly behind the dog) and then take a couple to the right or left, lets do this one to the left, so your current position is two steps behind the dog, and two steps to the left of the dog.  Start moving to the right side of the dog, as your pass behind the dog, the dog should turn its head to the right, praise and release.  It the dogs looks the other way, stop and start again.  If you have questions, let us know.

See you next week..........................
