Weaves 90%

Day 3 of weave training and we had a 90% success rate today and only missing the last few strides due to tiredness. We are currently working on the first 2/3 poles at a slight angle followed by the next 7/8 upright and still leaving the last 2 at a slight angle. I think it will take a few more training sessions until he is fully converted but in the long run it will be much better for him.

Again Kody was training for speed, I only did a few with him and finished just as he was starting to motor in order to keep the game alive for the weekend, I opted not to peg his weaves today to challenge him with any funny angles the poles fell at or even the base slightly off set, something that has occurred previously at shows, it was a complete success and the only thing Kody was thinking about was his ball at the end.

This weekend we are at North Derbyshire Show, the weather is looking good which is a bonus, if I remember correctly the show ended up getting cancelled on the second day last year due to the bad weather so hopefully that wont happen this time. Good luck to anyone competing this weekend.
