So, no corrections might help get her focused sometimes. As you say, agility, or any dog sport, needs to be fun!<br /><br />Love the photos of Marge playing with an orange fish toy!Cinnamon and Minthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12619271665722937945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-78006643402822385582009-11-05T11:41:46.062-05:002009-11-05T11:41:46.062-05:00When I say corrections, I don't mean in the ph...When I say corrections, I don't mean in the physical sense like a collar pop (I don't use any of those). I simply mean saying "uh-oh" or "try again," for example, if she misses her weave entry or breaks her contact position. Instead of doing so, I didn't give any no-reward marker, such as those, nor did I bring her back to do it again.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18146649374510678844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-68307627047744231202009-11-05T11:18:58.578-05:002009-11-05T11:18:58.578-05:00Is it a durable fishy?

Cooper & Gwen need durable stuffies as they are pretty quick to gut them!<br /><br />So what would you consider to be a correction when practicing agility? I'm curious because I *don't think* I was ever taught to correct...just ignore mistakes and heavily reward when Coop does it right. Maybe correcting Cooper would help him once in a while?<br /><br />-CCarolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175960074150834058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-25462092158605845652009-11-05T11:02:35.565-05:002009-11-05T11:02:35.565-05:00It is not easy sometimes to stand back and look at...It is not easy sometimes to stand back and look at the big picture and the long term training goals, and how you want things to look in the end-but you seem to have that clearly in your mind- and I think because you are NOT pushing and willing to do easier things to get a faster, happier dog you will actually progress way faster and have much nicer results when you do get there, and to look at all the progress Marge has been making, gosh just in the past couple of months she has come so far. <br />I love the pictures of Marge playing!Kathy Mocharnukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029142726866533193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-39182584786472391452009-11-05T10:23:45.135-05:002009-11-05T10:23:45.135-05:00Congrats on your bootiful and well-deserved award!...Congrats on your bootiful and well-deserved award!
