Blind Cross This is the only way of changing sides where Jenny’s first rule doesn’t apply when it comes to the change of hand. with the blind cross, it’s vital that you make your change of hand before the dog pushes off to jump. This change is needed to tell your dog which side of you he should run toward after the jump and also so he does not confuse the blind cross with a regular turn. also make a clear movement with your new hand after the jump to mark the side you want him on. Your movement should still be planned according to Jenny’s first rule. The change of your driving shoulder and your movement in the right direction before your dog takes off, regardless of your position, is crucial for a good turn. Be sure to look at your dog both before and after a blind cross to show him which side you want him on. You can prepare your dog for what’s to come by beginning to twist your body early while keeping your eyes focused in the first direction; where you’re looking should be the last thing to change in a blind cross. You are taking your eyes off your dog for only a fraction of a second while you change from looking at your dog on one side to the other. Blind Cross – with the blind cross, it’s vital that you make your change of hand before the dog pushes off to jump. 1 2 3 The blue line shows the correct handler path for a blind cross (following Jenny’s first rule). The turquoise line shows the incorrect handler path. 4 wrapping up I hope this article has helped you understand my system of handling. whether or not you use a system (and if you do, which system), the most important thing to me is that both dog and handler are happy and working with joy! In the next article I will explain how I train the foundation skills and build my handling cues. I will also share my thoughts on start lines and how to train them to get a happy, speedy, and reliable performance. There are many ways to get to the right feeling for different teams. D 5 whether or not you use a system (and if you do, which system), the most important thing to me is that both dog and handler are happy and working with joy!
