Last week while doing a Recaller game, The Wow Game, with MeiLi it became apparent that she was not responding to verbal cues given to her but only responding to hand motions. That is a major issue in agility so that is our current focus. We have not gotten to do too much because of the holiday, my judging schedule, and my health. But today we did a little testing of what she has learned so far. I am very pleased with the progress she is making. She has gotten to the point that she can handle switching from sits to downs, and then back to a sit. She is also getting better with the sit pretty which she is starting to hold for a longer amount of time. The turning cues still need work. She also needs to get stronger at doing this at a distance. Hopefully I will be able to get some additional work in with her over the next week We start in a new agility class in a week. I think it is going to be good for her to have a MeiLi only training class. Not sure how much running I can do but just having time to work on the basics around others will be very good for her.
