Part 1:
1. Circling game 2+ minutes: walk/trot/walk/stop and back on the circle then change direction trot then canter 6 laps, disengage hind quarters to stop and bring in
we need to see the send- you were nagging a bit asking her to trot at first. She lost her contact- in the backup, you will see her looking away. When you asked her to canter going to the right, she looked a bit grumpy- think about setting it up so that she is more positive/happy and keeping contact. must do a change of direction without breaking gait at trot.
Add obstacles: cavalettis and cones to relieve boredom ??
Fri: obstacles good but confusing, breaking gait over cavalettis avoiding cones
BUT Try was tired and I need to go back to square 1 with circling game, clean, review for us both.
Cleaning: good at level 1 and level 2: Still need 6 laps of true canter, snappy w/o attitude.
Tue: 3+3 canter, s but not falling leaf. For Wed: put it together.
2. Extreme friendly game: helicopter, slap ground 6 times in zone 5
must be able to take your hand off of her and play the extreme friendly still
Fri: done, not an issue
3. Lead by the hocks and the tail
with a 22 foot rope, not your hands
Fri: done not an issue
Great: 10 steps, light as a feather with rope.
tue: even better
try to lead her with just a few strands of her tail and snappier
Fri: better, good idea to go for 10' for both of these each time. Lots of treats.
Mon: good, light ten steps, tail resting in palm of hand Tue: maybe 1/4 of hairs
4. Sideways towards
sideways towards is looking good!
Fri: WOW--try it with cavaletti pole, then maybe barrel!!! and alternate away and toward.
Part 2:
1. Weave at walk then trot
try the weave at a longer distance/ need the draw at trot so she does not break gait
mark out my distance w/cavalettis or 45’ line for practice
Needs clarity, trot and my distance before filming Tue: better, try going even slower, do less and reward but be farther away
2. Pedestal
pedestal looks good, might want to try four!
3. Sidepass 3 barrels in an L shape
nice sideways over the 3 barrels!
4. Knock cone off barrel without knocking over barrel
nice cone knocking (she is so cute)
5. Cavaletti pole: one foot on pole then straddle between front legs, hind legs, horizontally and vertically
great with the cavaletti
Clean up so it is clear to Try.
Tue: better away and toward, step in front for fr foot, one foot, back foot, then do vertical
1. Transitions, practice stick to me at the trot or drive z5
2. Time within the 10 minute limit for "jump to me"??
