 Taylor Park

Each dog had a 2 turn track with 2 intermediate articles. Focus on me making a bigger deal out deal  out of articles & also dog taking responsibility for being on track after turn, showing me they are sure by pulling into harness.

Both tracks aged 1hr 15 min. Seren has #1, Dylan #2. It’s going to take a few sessions for me to be smooth about dropping food on articles 🙂 Seren had an air scenting episode on leg 2 that took a while to get through, & to a lesser extent on leg 3. Took me longer than it should have to remember about stepping behind dog when they are slightly off track. Clearly I need more practice. Both dogs had good turns & restarts after articles.
I didn’t notice the sky until looking at the video - so pretty!

 North Park Library Seren only today. She had an article in the woods track, 3 hours old. All articles except start (which wasn’t in the woods) had food in them & had food 10-20 steps after. She tracked quite well, I thought. Needed reminder lie down at a couple of the articles (at least as quickly as I would like), so I don’t plan to leave the food out any of them just yet. Did not seem averse to lying down in the woods, tho. https://youtu.be/CZjVFmqwbxs?feature=shared

Judi’s woods & hayfield Seren had a 3 turn track entirely in the woods. Five articles + start & end, all with food in them. I was very happy with this track. The combination of food in articles & random lie downs in the woods seems to be working as she downed for every article on her own. We’ll see how it goes when I start to decrease the number of articles with food in them video: https://youtu.be/dAPfu-as8Rk?feature=shared Dylan did a 3 turn tracks in the hayfield, utilizing the bowl area. He needed a verbal cue for start article, but other 2 were automatic. Very nice start & turns. https://youtu.be/DX8JJ- WdqDc?feature=shared
