Glory

I have had a few sessions with Glory.....at members night on Wed night she was much better behaved and actually did a 30 sec sit stay with the group of about 15 or more dogs. She did a couple because of course we could not expect her to do much more than that. But she did pretty darn good at it.
I have been trying to stop the luring with food for the Sphinx drop and have been doing a lot of them randomly throughout the day in the house and she is finally starting to figure out that sometimes there is a reward for dropping so that is great. I expect that to get better and faster over time. Her stands are great. She'll do a stand with a hand signal from either heel position or from in front (for the show ring). And she sits immediately when I say sit.
Tonight I did some more clicker training for touching the paper clip...this time on my training apron. I did several downs, sits and stands on the table and that was great.
I set her up on the ground with the Utility jumps set up (jump heights are only 4 inches high) and her in front of both the solid and the bar and I sent her over each one 3 or 4 times and she held the stay to till I sent her and she came right in over the right jump each time. Of course I have her positioned so it would be hard for her to make a mistake.
I also walked around with her working on attention (no heeling yet) and she does very well with that. Once I have had her through all the Koehler in about 10 weeks, I will start to put the attention and the heeling together.
And of course we did a few retrieves with the pigeon before and after. She did that very well as usual.
