This is like the fisherman who cought the catch of his life. At least I have witnesses. I ran Tucker for the K9 Kup and while I was walking the Jumpers course, I made a spur of the moment decision to try it with Jasmine as well. The course is simple and all the FC are after tunnels so the risks of zoomies are minimal. At least I think so.
Play by play description
Although Jasmine self-released herself at the startline, I stuck to my guns and made her sit again. She complied, did the focus forward and only then did I release her. I'm the boss, right?
Tire, jump, tunnel, FC after the tunnel and pinwheel. She runs off after the second jump of the pinwheel and I call her back. OMG! She obeys and comes back. SHE COMES BACK! I admit my heart did a little somersault but what a day! After that, it's a breeze.
It's no coincidence that I chose a Jumpers course. Jasmine does zoomies after transitions. Obstacle to a jump, etc. In this case, there is none and I didn't need to skip obtacles. I also chose a course I knew she would be confident about.
I'm still in la-la land.
To work on: Startline stays, pinwheels and I need to get fit. Jasmine runs so fast, she always ahead of me.
