First, a question: does anyone have any suggestions for getting a dog motivated about weave poles? Lili will do them, but only under protest. They bore her! Seriously! [I]Anything[/I] is more interesting to her--leaves falling, a gnat flying by, a passing cloud... :rolleyes: She has a lot of trouble staying focused for a complete pass, and we're only working with a stretch of 6 poles at a crack. Should I try shortening the line to 4 or 5 poles and go from there? Find a better-tasting treat? :D
And now, down to the picture portion of this thread: First, some pictures of Grace... ...coming over the hurdle... [ATTACH]81616[/ATTACH] ...weaving... [ATTACH]81614[/ATTACH] ...contemplating the hoop (yes, she came through, but of course I missed that shot! :laughing: [ATTACH]81617[/ATTACH] |

Although Lili is bored to tears with weave poles, she does, on occasion, lead through them (as opposed to following a treat). Then she looks over her shoulder at me as if to say, "See, Mom? I understand what you want, it's just too boring for a smart little cookie like me!" :dog: :laughing:
After her initial distrust of it, the tunnel has become one of her favorite events. She'll go in on command even if I'm not guiding her to it :highfive: Some pictures of Lili perfecting her tunneling skills: Lili popping out of the tunnel... [ATTACH]81620[/ATTACH] and popping back in... [ATTACH]81619[/ATTACH] and popping back out again! She does enjoy her tunnel now! :laughing: [ATTACH]81618[/ATTACH] |
:laughing: Tunnels are the best :dog:
