Practice 1 at Rachel's house. Rainy day. Poppy often moves to the right side. Janet's timing was off for corrections. Different dog and handler, different day. Ended on a good note.
Practice 2 on Jeanne's driveway. Still raining. Poppy showed improvement, although she still moved to the right. Something seemed to click with her this afternoon. She sometimes waited for me to do a 270 around her, she began adjusting her pace to mine and stopping with me when I stopped, she even moved forward from a stop before the line tugged her.
GOOD WORK! Poppy is 'checking-in' and beginning to take responsibility for her position as it relates to her handler.
