Our practice rally course at training last night. I think this was our best run EVER! I didn't get lost on the course once and he maintained eye contact almost the entire time.

If you get seasick from watching the very beginning, hang in there, it gets better. My videographer is 8 and she only charges $2.

Thanks! I think we could be ready to try for our novice title soon... I'm thinking about the Land O' Lakes Kennel Club show in January. Anyone going?

LOL! he's such a goofball. The class has all big dogs with the exception of 2; that little guy who was in front of us in the beginning and a silky terrier... the ONLY dog that didn't kick the jump was the silky terrier. Go figure!

It's awesome that you guys have an indoor training facility! I would looooove that. We train outdoors, which sucks sometimes, but has really helped with getting Thalia over her reluctance to lay down in wet grass lol!

Excellent eye contact! REALLY good job! Our rally trainer is an AKC/UKC judge, & the one thing I noticed that I always got yelled at was LOOSE LEASH! Our trainer said she always kept an eye on the leash clip; if it was hanging & swinging the leash was loose enough. If it was taut, she marked down.

Thank you! I really have to work on my leash handling. There's no reason Yogi needs a tight leash... It's all me. I don't know why I have such a hard time with that.
