Zumi Running Dogwalk update
The journey continues! Took an unplanned full week off her RDW training but picked up right where we left off. After the last blog post I guessed we would be at that height for while. I was wrong as the 2 later sessions that week both went fantastic. Almost no jumping being done, and only a few extended strides over the zone! This Monday I raised it a teeny bit at the end, and Tuesday we started with the new height and then moved it up again the last 2 reps.
More excitement of a dog running a plank.
I would think we have to be at baby dogwalk height now, so the plan is to do another session at the newest height and then re-attach the board to the dogwalk and lower the whole thing to 2ft. Backchain it slowly until she's doing the full baby dogwalk. I know the added speed will destroy everything she's learned, so fun times ahead! Vito never got to do this step and I suspect it will be super painful for me as well as very beneficial in the long run.
Looks like she's doing great!! How are scent articles going? ;-)
I'm kind of sad I'm caught up. I was having a lot of fun catching up and now I'll have to do like everyone else and wait for the next post hehe.
Scent article are goigng great! I have distance now to a pile of metal and now begun leather. No distance on leather, but I'm not putting food on the correct one at all either. She's about 70% accurate with leather right now. I'm hoping to combine leather and metal piles next week!
You did a ton of reading, I am shocked!
That's great! She's really coming along!
Yeah when I go to catch up on blog I catch up hehe. It helped that my boss has been out this week so I was able to read at work too lol!
