Yesterday I decided to have a day off work, we took full advantage of the good weather and went to the field to do some weave training. As Zippy has good entries I decided to just work with the v-weaves and concentrate on the single stride action.
I found that he will single stride until the weaves are fully upright so im slowly introducing slight v-weaves with a mixture of uprights placed in the middle.
Currently we are working with the centre 4 poles upright and the 4 at the beginning and end are remaining on slight angles. This appears to be working and once he has 100% success rate then I will increase the upright poles.
With Kody he seems to lack confidence sometimes with the weaves and can slow towards the end, it was all about speed yesterday and I think the session did him good, he was flying through them at the end so im hoping we will get another session in before the weekend just to give him that extra boost.
Ronny and Keisha were just working on entries, its amazing how they can loose the skill if you don't use it enough, Keisha is now back to hitting some awesome entries, Ronny was never taught the 2x2 method but yesterday he was a very clever boy and hit most of the entries anyway.
A little birdie just told me that Grace and Kiah won into Grade 6 at the weekend, well done to you both, there must be something in the air because in the last 2 weeks I make it that 5 Malinois are now Grade 6 dogs, come on the Belgians !!!
