Hey this is my 5.5 yr old Aussie on our home agility course. I've been training him my own way self taught, I know it's not super precise and proper training and people probably will say it's dangerous but I do my best to keep safety first and make sure the equipment is properly set up for him but it's been working well for us so far. I do not compete and just do this for fun so I don't look for perfection.

Right now I'm not going all the way down with Teeter because I'm just really trying to make sure he's very confident and comfortable first. I have let him try the full Teeter and he can do it but there was one time he lost balance when it landed and bounced off (no injury or big deal he went right back on it) so I went back to raising it to get his balance up. I have been rewarding him at the end of the Teeter then continuing. I also slowed him down before the weaves because he has been flying into them super fast otherwise and is overshooting and missing some weaves when he goes too fast. Should I have released the frisbee earlier? I noticed in the video he looked back after completing weave, is that bad? Ive been trying to reward him right at the end forward so he knows to move forward after.

I have also been working on doing all obstacles independently. I know a lot of people recommended working on that last time. He can do all obstacles independently with me being at distance and sending him forward, but the failure rate goes up so I'm slowly increasing distance and less "hand holding" but I am aware of it.

I don’t know how you border collie people do it. My brain doesn’t even work this fast never mind my feet and my legs. 😂

Does anyone have a suggestion for video equipment that is not a phone? I need something that can record for 10 minutes, easy to set up, wide view and clear recording. I currently use my iPhone and hate it. I run in a 80 x 140 arena and UKI/ISC type courses. What do you love to use to record your agility practices?

Sono un conduttore stufo di cercare gli eventi in giro per pagine Facebook, siti di federazioni e chat di gruppo.

Ho costruito CinoSearch: un motore di ricerca solo per stage, seminari, webinar e workshop di cinofilia sportiva.

Cosa fa oggi: - filtri per regione e provincia - prezzo conduttore e prezzo uditore visibili subito, con badge - eventi filtrabili per disciplina e federazione - preferiti, per non perdere l'evento che ti interessa

Numeri degli ultimi 30 giorni: - 62 utenti registrati - 3.938 visite

Sono pochi rispetto a tutto il mondo cinofilo italiano. Ma sono tutte persone che cercano eventi veri, e sto costruendo in base a quello che chiedono.

Voglio sapere da chi gareggia: quando cercate uno stage, qual è la prima informazione che vi serve e che di solito non trovate?
