Club AKC trial

labgirl · Feb 12, 2015

I've watched the video several times and from what I can see Jocu glances at your hand or possibly face and loses track of the next jump, in that split second he misses the jump.

I wouldn't worry about it too much as for the rest he was really storming. As I said before something distracted him and caused him to look at you. One of those little glitches.

Why for instance, on Tuesday night, did Merlin decide to spin around and around a single weave pole rather than do the full set? :wink2:

he's inventing a new thing to do- shelties will excel at the run around the pole :winkgrin:

Two handsome doggies with their ribbons :wink2:

And yes, I think it could be a whole new obstacle on the course, a single pole you have to spin round!

thanks- I think that they look pretty good..... :winkgrin:

Nadac does have something similar- the barrel.
depending on the course, they can go all the way around it or just pass by it.
will look to see if we have any videos that show the barrel.

here's a weavers video (starring Cranberry and also an entertaining judge :winkgrin:

) that shows the barrel and how the dog should go around it.
