Kat/Riley 9/26: FC Week 3, Body Bend Readiness and RC Lesson 7 Exams

 Fun night tonight! I had a busy (and fun!) morning with a simulation at work, so I didn’t get to work the dogs before it got way too hot. I let the pups play at home for a bit, kenneled both of them, and left my Niko home and had Riley join us at my son’s soccer game. 

We started with the Longe line tonight- I can learn! And then moved to the tennis courts. I thought, ‘why not try it?’ So I set up the pipes and heeled her through them for a few minutes. She did great! Only one OUT when she was dragging and knocked over some two pipes.

She did so great, we started the camera and recorded the best body bend exam I have ever recorded. 😂


Then we headed over closer to the distractions and did 6 retrieves at the ground! I should have done one EC when I knocked the dumbbell out of her mouth, but technically I still should have been caging and not trying to knock it out, sooooooo…. 🤪


I attempted quiet time… not quite successfully… and then decided she probably needed a good run to get some wiggles out. 


She also has been great with my boys and husband! 😄

  3. I am loving to see the difference in Riley since the first time through the foundation course. She is much more controlled and responsive to what she needs to do. Kat you are doing soooo good.

  4. LOL, oh yes, surely, indeed, a delightful Pass! This was sheer joy for me watching you work Riley, Kat. She is working FOR you and WITH you and earning VERY special praise FROM you.

    SO WELL DONE, Body Bend too was 💯 excellent as on Sit and Stand, Riley did not collapse at all.

    Love seeing the two of you, Riley is having a blast visiting you and will, always and forever, want to come visit with you and your Pack.😘
