Not sure what set up you have, but you want to target her forward in these early stages to create the independent contact behavior.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916503009110427343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977067058374900985.post-57888922869578799202011-01-05T10:54:35.979-07:002011-01-05T10:54:35.979-07:00@Kathy - that is Emma.

She is the one responsible for getting me involved in dogs sports (flyball) because of fear aggression issues. She did a brief stint on a flyball team (about 7 months) and then retired. But the confidence she gained in training and competing helped with her fear issues.<br />I should write a blog post about her and our adventures ;-)Morgannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185607903093272777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977067058374900985.post-59489820161093850842011-01-05T07:52:52.144-07:002011-01-05T07:52:52.144-07:00Who's the black and white guy in the peanut ga...Who's the black and white guy in the peanut gallery?Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13545617827996043666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977067058374900985.post-31763320412591200552011-01-05T00:41:07.713-07:002011-01-05T00:41:07.713-07:00I am so glad to hear that Summit is okay now.

You are going to have so much fun with Soleil with the running contacts and I am going to have so much fun watching you guys train them. We just did our first Aframe today with Cricket and she did really great I thought for a first time! It was very exciting, and made me smile ;-).Kathy Mocharnukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029142726866533193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977067058374900985.post-71668960557137614562011-01-04T18:54:29.838-07:002011-01-04T18:54:29.838-07:00Glad it isn't anything more serious with Summi...Glad it isn't anything more serious with Summit. I agree they were lovely runs.<br />I have no experience with running contacts but my next little dog will have them :-) Looks good to me though. I know when I went to Sylvia's seminar in Colorado that it is all about the foot placement and clicking for same. Looked like you were doing a good job of that. Video is invaluable for this.kiwichickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525090034649104696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977067058374900985.post-10862952909303294562011-01-04T17:32:05.062-07:002011-01-04T17:32:05.062-07:00Glad to hear Summit is ok!

I wish I knew more about chiropractic and really felt good and safe about taking Ricky to one.<br /><br />Soleil is doing fantastic - I love that she is so enthusiastic about running a board!

He worked miracles on my knee this past summer and it's flaring up again so I'm hoping he can set it right.<br /><br />Soleil looks awesome! Doesn't get much better than that. And of course those runs with Summit are fabulous.<br /><br />We'll see you at USDAA this weekend.Elaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02734583197185810124noreply@blogger.com
