Much quicker update!!

We had agility training today and both dogs did good:

Jemma
She was much better at her weaves today and only got them wrong a few times when I kept getting in completely the wrong place!! Her contacts were a little slow but she has a sore on her leg and so we wondered if this is was causing some of the problem, it is hard with her as well as she only ever does them slowly in competition if she has already had a pole down and I decide to work them so training her under the same conditions is hard!! She did some really tricky jumping bits very nicely and tight which was good, all in all a good lesson for her, fingers crossed for clear rounds at the weekend!!

Elliot
His contacts have slowed up a little bit (although again they are never as bad in competition) and his first few a-frames were shocking, with him stopping half way down!! His weave entrances were good but the first few times he came out at number 10 again, but if i stayed on his shoulder and really worked them he did them all :) We had to work a little bit more on the jump sequence with him than with Jem as he jumps longer and so I have to handle twidly bits differently with him than with her and I am still trying to work out which is the best way to do it!! We did some work on his left and rights as well and they are getting much better, he is still much more confident with left than right though. The weekend should be fun with him too!!
