Poorly Pen

Pen was poorly today so paul trained us.

Jemma:
We just did loads of course work today, I seem to be getting a lot better at working out the best way to handle things which is good!! There were lots of contacts in the courses today so I trained them but I wasn't really happy with them. She still isn't really driving to the bottom as much as I would like, we shall have to work on this!!

Elliot:
Another step on the ladder- we had the jumps at full height today and he went over them all, apart from a couple of times at the beginning he went under the one before the dog walk but we seemed to sort this. We put the contacts in courses for him too and he did well, I don't feel the nose touch is really ingrained in him yet and certainly feel this needs a lot more work, as I think this is where I will loose him in a competition. We did a little bit of weave work with them on the tape and he wasn't getting them 100%, i get the feeling he has got bored with doing them as after each go he wanders off and I have to really work to get him back, hmmm, mayb i need to find some more exciting treats!!
