Glory

I have had a few sessions with Glory over the last few days and yesterday I took her and Addie to a correction match in Lindsay. Glory just went for the experience and Addie did Utility. Glory did very well with sitting to be petted and trying hard not to jump up on people. Trying to keep a close eye on other people giving her treats, something I do not want to encourage.
Today I finally remembered to take my camera with me into the shelter to get some pictures of her doing a stand and a few sit stays.
She will now do a stand with a hand signal from either the side or from in front of her. This will help a lot for conformation so she can continue to learn a sit but I have a signal to over ride it in the show ring. And down is very good. Trying to fade food now though so she only gets the treat as a reward and not as a lure anymore.
I also put a bowl on the floor of the shelter and worked on attention with the food bowl and a chicken wiener in it and that was great. She picks things up so fast. I have also been clicker training her to focus on a paper clip. I did this with Tanner but not Robbie or Addie. She is getting a click for touching the clip and I am now transferring the clip to my pant leg. She is doing very well with that but next time I should wear light coloured slacks so it is easier for her to see. Hopefully this will get me a nice tight front eventually.
Also did lots of sits and sit stays with her. She can hold a stay for about 45 seconds and about 15 feet now....awesome. I am working on the front position too and getting her used to my feet touching her legs to move her from side to side. I have never done this till much much later with my other dogs but have seen enough high level competitors do this at seminars, that I feel it will be of great benefit later on so I am doing it with her now so she will not be worried about it later on.
I also have been doing some jumping over a 4 foot high board and I am going to start to cast her over them fairly soon. I am introducing this with a recall to front over the board. So far it seems like she is doing a lot of stuff but she loves it....she gets food treats, after all....but every time we go outside she tries to persuade me to go to the training shelter to work.
We did retrieves with a pigeon several times throughout the session too so she loves that part A LOT!
I am picking my field training buddy up tomorrow and bringing her home after she had both her knees replaced a month ago. She has been staying at her dads but is going to start to get her dogs back and start to work, so once she is up to it, I am going to get her to help me with field work for Glory.
