Distance Handling 101 – Foundation Skills: Episode 18 - Progressing your Wait
In this episode I am looking at how to take our basic wait behaviour and transfer it into a wait in front of an obstacle.
This can be a surprisingly tricky exercise, with some dogs finding it extremely hard to hold a stationary position once an obstacle is involved. However, this is a very important skill for any agility dog and will give you a major advantage as a distance handler if you can leave your dog in a wait.
Too many agility handlers neglect their wait cue until the dog is heavily fixated on doing obstacles and then they find it a struggle to go back and perfect a wait. Been there, done that! My first agility dog did not have a wait, if I could move to the side of the jump before ...

Magpie’s best bits from competition on 30 December 2023
Просмотров 1106 месяцев назад
Valley Farm - 30 December 2023 Magpie A brand new venue for Magpie and this caused some of her anxiety to return. She was not as driven as she can be and less confident. However, we had several successful moments including a stunning dogwalk contact into a distant tunnel - just happened she was not meant to do the tunnel! The seesaw remains our nemesis, but we will take our time and Magpie will...
Everyday K9s Podcast Episode 1 - Can a new drug lengthen our dogs' lifespan?

In this episode we discuss the news that San-Francisco based biotech company Loyal has announced it is on its way to developing an anti-ageing drug for dogs that could extend their lifespan. We discuss the ethical issues surrounding the claims, whether it will be a benefit to all dogs or a luxury item for the few, and ask ourselves whether we would take a chance on such a drug. If you enjoyed t...
Distance Handling 101 - Foundation Skills: Episode 17 - Jump Value 4: Adding the Jump Cue
Просмотров 1437 месяцев назад
In this episode: We are introducing a cue for the jump. This is more important than many people think, especially with agility courses becoming more complex in design and asking for greater discrimination powers from our dogs. Our dogs need to know when it is time to take a jump, and only a jump. So we are going to give them a specific cue for this action which means - take the jump immediately...

Просмотров 1347 месяцев назад
In this episode: We are now at the third layer of teaching great jump commitment to our dog. At this stage, your dog should happily run through the wings without prompting, they will hopefully seek them out as a way to earn an easy reward. That is awesome! Now we need to add in a jump pole to actual make this a 'jump'. *IMPORTANT* Only add in the jump pole once your dog is old enough and progre...

In this episode: I am progressing our dogs' understanding of jump value. I now what to challenge that understanding and fine out if they really know to run through the wings to earn the reward. To do this I will be adding distance to the exercise in a gradual process. There is still no actual 'jumping' involved. Between the wings is a puppy bump, but no pole. This makes this exercise suitable f...

22 October 2023 C1-4 Jumping (Clear) 40.226 Another fab clear on a similar course to the 1-7. Swift hesitated at the same point, the driving past me which is something we are working on, but overall she looked good with her independent push rounds, rear cross and smooth entry into the tunnel. This was the last run of the day and consequently I was not feeling my best and was a touch light-heade...

22 October 2023 C1-3 Jumping (5f) 39.306 Swift was driving on better than I expected, just a hesitation on the push round at the top of the course. I fortunately I was further behind than I had intended for the tunnel so Swift pull to me out of the tunnel and came past the face of the next jump earning a refusal (5R). However, she listened lovely for the discrimination to get to the weaves and ...

22 October 2023 C1-7 Jumping (Clear) 40.456 Swift put in a nice run on this speedy course. I trusted her on the natural push round after the top tunnel and we just lost connection on the long straight down the middle. I didn't trust my rear cross at the jump after the middle loop and so flicked her to my right side which cost us time, but she performed the rear cross on the jump before the tunn...

22 October 2023 C1-3 Agility (10F) This was our re-run of the course, as the first time we were stopped due to the jumps being the wrong height. The first time we ran Swift nailed the dogwalk contact, the second time she jumped off the side missing the contact (5f), however I got her to drive out better and complete the seesaw independently. We picked up another (5R) on the second to last jump ...
Training Diaries - Swift practices rear crosses

This is version one of handling this course where I deliberately put myself in a position to need to do a rear cross in the weav...

In this episode: I explain the the importance of a dog having value for jumps. Of all the agility obstacles a dog will negotiate during its career, by far and away, the majority of them will be jumps. Yet, basic jump commitment is a neglected element in many training plans. Great attention is placed on complex obstacle behaviours such as running contacts and difficult weave entries, while often...

Late verbal cues are a primary cause for dogs taking the wrong course, knocking poles or becoming frustrated with the handler. Even handlers who can run with their dogs need to time their cues correctly to avoid mistakes occurring. When cues are giv...

      @everydayk9sdogtraining366 5 месяцев назад

      Hiya, I haven't done a video on that, but I will add it to my list of video topics. I assume by crossing between you mean when the dog is not to go to the far side of the barrel, but come on the inside?

    In this video then, you are clicking for the foot behavior on the plank not foot placement on the mat. Is that correct?

    • @everydayk9sdogtraining366
      @everydayk9sdogtraining366 6 месяцев назад

      Hi, I am looking for both, so I want her to run through the contact and across the mat to earn the reward. If she misses the contact but gets the mat then no reward. Equally if she hit the contact but leapt over the mat I would not reward because it is not a true run through and could lead to higher leaping. So the behaviour I mark initially is ‘at least one foot on contact area followed by running over the mat’ - not bouncing on and off the mat, that’s important. As she gets more confident then I tighten my criteria to at least two feet on contact, with split back feet, followed by running over the mat. Hope that makes sense?

    • @everydayk9sdogtraining366
      @everydayk9sdogtraining366 10 месяцев назад

      Thank you for your reply. I never actually teach the cue, but whenever I am prepping them for an exercise I tend to say 'ready, ready' and they eventually link this to the fact they are about to work. For instance, if I am working on getting them to run out to a toy, I might hold their harness or collar to lightly restrain them, say 'ready' and wait until I feel a little tension as they pull against them and then release them. They learn to associate 'ready' with action that way

    Epic was the first puppy I had off lead as a baby. He has the best recalls of all of them. He learned from the start to come back and that it led to more fun. When he was attacked, I was very thankful I had a solid recall, because his first thought was to return to me. So important. ❤

    I have never seen a mat placed there except for two on two off or four on the floor (Rachel Sanders). Running contact videos like Trkman and Biggs place it on the lower half of the yellow contact. Placing it on the ground might result in teaching the dog he can jump the lower half of the ramp and hit mat ok.

    • @everydayk9sdogtraining366
      @everydayk9sdogtraining366 Год назад

      Thank you for your comment. Yes, traditionally the mat is on the contact area, this did not work for Magpie or my other spaniel Sparrow. They would either leap over or plant their feet and leap off. Putting the mat after the contact helps Magpie to drop her head. Because she has to run across the mat she runs down and through. All dogs are different, of course.

    So i went to try this one because i was sure my dogs could do it, since i was able to send them form various angles!... To my big surprise i realized that all my backside training was with my dogs on the outside of me! It was a really eye opener and did end my reps with a few beautiful sends from my inside and from my outside, and could do the 3/4 of the first jump aligned with the backside jump! Thanks for this videos! it helping me a lot!!!!

    @silverleaf79 Год назад

    I've been using two cues - Away for going from the right and Come By for left, As much as it tickles me to use sheepdog cues with a papillon, I think I might have to adopt your idea of not worrying about direction and just using "round the back and turn tight" and "round the back and jump long/slice" cues. He knows what side I want him to go anyway from my body cue, and I do occasionally forget the directional verbal and give the wrong one - he usually get it right anyway from context because of where I'm facing and what side he's on.

    • @everydayk9sdogtraining366
      @everydayk9sdogtraining366 Год назад

      This is one area I have never had directional cues (and I have a lot of verbal cues, lol!) and it has never been an issue even though I have to do a lot more distance handling these days. I also think that even if they took the wrong wing, as long as they completed the backside you can save it by what you cue next. Glad this has helped
