Hanging Around

A week all about getting ready for the specialty so not much to report.  Lots of stuff I've already talked about.  First and foremost, Shasta continues to show that she is dog that likes to be part of the group.  She hangs close.  Loves to lie with me, moves rooms as I move rooms, likes to be around.  And I am appreciating it.

As for training, there has been nothing new, I've only been working on solidifying what she knows.  It's been going well.  She knows her right, left, sit, down and wait all quite well right now.  I guess I have done one thing new.  We have begun to "pounce" on the adult teeter at just about it's lowest height.  It's a bigger board and more noisy but she continues to have no issues jumping on it from any angle.  Her waiting for release from the bottom position is also going really well. 

The 30 second clip below shows her working on the teeter.  You can see she breaks her bottom.  You can also see some of her dandelion eating.  But you can also see the good pounce and the good mini-proofing on the bottom as well.



All-in-all, more good, positive signs.  Now we'll see how she does around all the berners at the specialty!
