New Training

Our new training is going great! Facility  set up every time when we come in so lots of things to practice. Bad part - need to do my own pans. So Che- he started wandering off when I asked for sit and he did not want to... another great DWDH/ dont wanna dont hafta moment/ well since he ended up missing his run, he did not like that result and was much more cooperative at next one. Few more times  like this and he will get the message. I think he does like his agility but just as many things in his life he likes it to be on his terms. Which is a pity since he is good dog and listens well, when he wants to so running with him in agility is a pleasure/ at times/. Still need to work on RC with him and weave entrance. Our independent weaves are joke . I do have 2x2 DVD so need to retrain. Also he took off course twice to the tunnel and he is not a tunnel freak so it was my late cues and his overextention in jumping that led to it. So need to work on tight jumps and earlier cues. What else?
 On Leo- he can have great speed and motivation and loves and listens well. I have very little send on him but teaching tight turns will help. He is less in tune with me and   more veclro which kinda does not make sense. He does not get commands as well as Che does and he looks more at me than obstacles. So next week hopefully grids will come to help with increasing value for obstacles. Probably one more session with treats in my pockets and then we need to start working on the system rewards like actual trials.
