    OK. Sadly, it’s time to start getting picky. Did you see you ‘correct’ him at the start while you tried to pocket the article? Practice that skill without the dog!!! First turn—absolutely perfect. He didn’t need you AT ALL. This is a good thing! Loved the article placement after ?second? Turn (toplisted video). He made the turn without you and the track told him he was correct. PERFECT. Lovely track recovery after the article. Please put a SP with food after that to reward him for the refind. NICE HUSSLE after the turn! By letting him take 100% of the responsibility you’ve added pressure/stress (potentially). By getting back up there you’re supporting him, taking the pressure off, so he has the confidence to take over again. Well done. The whole thing was just perfect! When you do this again, try to step off in both directions so he has to refind to the left and the right. Really nice training Ellen!

    i would say at the start to practice standing still while you pick up the article AND PLAY THE LINE TO 20 ft - just like you will have to do in a trial (between those flags all requirements apply). keep your eyes on him but pick up that article and let the line get to 20, then step forward and hustle up to 10. he needs to know that he starts and you have to play the line out. nice work.

1/19/25. Short tracks around fences and woods

Image
 1/19/25. Laid these short tracks one at a time, ran him within 5 minutes and put him in the car to marinate while I laid the next one. Food drops varied between 10-15 steps apart. He got better with each track. Track #1. Struggled at the turn into tall cover  https://youtu.be/imxw4lYuoHA?feature=shared Track #2 short track from tall cover to short towards fence  https://youtu.be/bA4Q4ZZpGu4?feature=shared Track #3 Between 2 fences towards woods  https://youtu.be/R9EverPLGJ8?feature=shared Track #4 Parallel woods and turn away  https://youtu.be/88B4jnpOJYc?feature=shared

2/27/25. Blind Hangman at PSP

Image
 2/27/25. Blind Hangman - phone view   https://youtu.be/eGHwtjU4ANI?feature=shared At 1:29 I saw the head turn and he looked back at me so I slowed down and put a little pressure on the line.                                             Go Pro view   https://youtu.be/QFmWaBCJbFs?feature=shared Great head turn and stare at me at 1:37, 1:38. I think I should have stopped instead of slowed down?? 60 degrees, gusts up to 29 mph, 46% humidity     Laid at 9:25, ran at 10:40ish Good start, good articles, stayed with track The random gloves that were 5 yds past the end of the hangman drew him forward and then he is used to continuing on straight after finding an article, so he went straight on. Andrea stopped us and then we did the back up routine until he found the leg. I was happy with our overall performance.
