Kim & Kara Lession 7 progress videos

My distractions left but i made her go through the motions anyway.
I sent her 50 ft because you said that was enough. She is not going to be field dog.
we heeled for 3 minutes
Using the blanket as a target to drop did help her alot.
im not sure i did this right. she didnt seem to want to lanch from matt.

    Stays look fine, but why is Kara's chain collar on backwards?

    1. I did not notice it must have happened at show when I took it off to go in ring and when we put it back on.

  2. Heeling is fine, but relax your left hand holding shoestring with prong. DoR is GOOD! No, she isn't going to be a field dog, but you always work a dog farther than what will be the required distance of the obedience ring. So by only training Kara to do a Go-Out 50', since we know 'Distance erodes Control', under stress and distractions, she won't go-out 50', she will go a shorter distance. Which can cause you and her Gremlins when you get to Utility matches and trials. Do the required 70-80' Go-Out which gives you a safety space for future training. And you will need that extended distance for the Lesson 9 casting.

    Broad Jump is excellent, man, Kara CAN jump!!
