Moving Away
6
2
1
Start with the dog at the beginning of the
weave poles. As the dog weaves, gradually move away from the poles at an angle,
maintaining support with your arm and
shoulders. The dog will want to follow
your motion at first, but if he is focused
on the target or toy at the end of the
poles and you move away gradually, he will
learn to complete the poles on his own.
Repeat until you are able to move to the
next obstacle while the dog is completing
the poles as shown in Figure 6.
Proofing
When moving away laterally, support
the dog through the poles with your
shoulders and arm.
Proofing allows you to ensure that the dog
understands his job even if something unexpected happens. When the dog is proficient with the send, call, lateral distance,
and moving away exercises, incorporate
additional distractions like handling maneuvers, toys or treats on the ground
away from the weave poles, clapping, or
cheering. If your dog is proficient at performing independently, he should be able
to continue to perform the poles correctly while ignoring significant distractions.
Next MoNth
Once you have worked through the
above exercises, you will be able to direct
your dog to the weave poles and your
dog will complete the obstacle independently, regardless of where you are or
what you are doing. Challenge your team
by continuously working to improve your
handling accuracy at a distance.The payoff
is a more confident dog that can speed up
because he is not waiting for his handler
to show him what to do on each obstacle.
Next month’s article will contain exercises to master independent performance
of common jumping patterns. D
