Wednesday's Work

Practice Rally-O course with 15 stations way back when I was 10 months old.  We were still in the process of working out certain hand signals/verbal cues for some exercises (for example, the "moving down").

Wednesday's Work

 One day last week, Mom set up a second jump to see what would happen.
Here I am being called over a jump grid for the very first time: 


Second time:

Mom was ecstatic that I instinctively knew to "bounce" in between the jumps!

Wednesday's Work

The Tire Jump

I was sent to the jump by the camera hound who was
standing 20' feet away facing the side of the jump

These photos and videos are from my Introduction to the Tire Jump. Or, should I say, the "tired" jump!  (The camera hound is not moving very well in these videos as she overdid some yardwork earlier in the day. Part of that work was freeing the tire jump from its job as a support for the temporary fencing.)


Here's my Introduction to Directed Jumping using the tire jump ("jump") and the bar jump ("over").  An arm signal accompanied the verbal signals (which you would have been able to see had the camera been better positioned...sigh).


The tire jump is LOTS OF FUN but it really does need a little sprucing up with fresh tape (not photoshop)!.
