Terra is 5 months old today!
I expected her to be tired out from yesterday's eventful day, but she was full of energy.
She came along to Chimera's monthly chiropractic appointment. She loved on everyone there. Very happy girl.
We stopped by Sherry's and she got to play with a few other dogs in the rain.
Worked on getting barking on cue. She started getting excited/playful as soon as I started jumping around with Cai and having him bark, and demand barked or "talked" at him 5 times. I'm confident now that I'll get the barking on some sort of cue. The question is, how long will it take to get rid of it when I no longer want it offered?
In the evening we did training and saw a break through with the mat: she consistently went directly to the mat and sat down immediately. She's also quicker to get up when I say and then signal "free."
Chin target: clicking for holding still while I move my free hand around in front of her head.
Paw target: very consistent, quick response now. Starting to raise the target into the air, which requires extra coordination and body awareness, so is a challenge.
Bucket game: just started. The beginning is just like her stand-stay training with a visual target so she picked it up quickly. Lowering the bucket to the ground will be a challenge.
