(Sponsored by @aquadogvestfold) ⬆️🔟 Here are my top ten tips on pool manners to work on before you need them: in case Mynt ever gets injured and needs careful rehab swimming, these behaviors will make it easier! 1️⃣ Waiting on the ramp (even if your sister gets to jump in). 2️⃣ Getting in carefully (without jumping). 3️⃣ Getting in when asked (even if there is no toy in the water). 4️⃣ Coming to my hand (so that I can decide where you swim). 5️⃣ Playing with me (instead of playing alone). 6️⃣ Taking breaks and relaxing in my arms (climbing in and out can be too taxing with an injury). 7️⃣ Switching focus between different toys (very difficult if you are slightly autistic, like Smiley). 8️⃣ Waiting for a cue (it is hard to stay afloat without moving around). 9️⃣ Taking a toy from my hand (important for Ville, who managed to get water in her lungs once). 🔟 Getting out when asked (even if you don’t want to take a break). 🦄 All of them have been difficult for Smiley, who got a fast start to her swimming career when she got injured as a puppy and needed months of rehab to build her strength back. . We are incredibly lucky to have Aquadog Vestfold as one of our main sponsors! They provide us with the chance to swim regularly, building not just manners, strength and endurance. . . . . . #hundesvømming #hundetrening #reklameforsponsor #aquadogvestfold #aquadog #gøymedhundetrening #atletiskhund #bordercollie #klikkertrening #shaping #hundträning #hundetræning #koiratreenit #koirat #koiranelämää #dogswim #dogswimming #dogswimmingpool #dogtrick #gooddog #dogtricks #smartdog #agilitydog #dogsofnorway #tønsberg #dogtricksofinstagram #speedandagility #agilitybordercollie #topten #dogtrainingtips
Today is Smiley's birthday! I made her a birthday video as usual, but you'll have to watch it on YouTube or Facebook because instagram didn't approve of my choice of music 🤣🙈
Do you track your training? How? I know I promised to dive deeper into how I finally found easy but inspiring ways to use my training diary, and here it is! It was a challenge to keep the video short, so I’ll elaborate a bit for you. I separate my doodling in three categories; everyday life coded and summarized, training plans, and competition days: 1️⃣ In everyday life the minimum I do is to code our activities in one simple letter, like A for agility or S for swimming. That letter goes into a montly summary so I can keep track on the balance between rest, fitness, agility and mental/social exercise. For agility training I try to have a little plan with boxes I can tick when we do what I wanted to work on. Sometimes I evaluate, elaborate and write several pages of seminar notes. What keeps me consistent is that simple one letter code minimum - that allowes me an easy way to success! 2️⃣ When I find something we should come back to and work more on, I mark that with a particular kind of star. Those are summarized in a list for a longer period of time, like our winter training list. That ensures I don’t completely forget to go back and work on those weaknesses I found. 3️⃣ For competition days I still use this setup that I developed for Kuling’s first FCI world championship in 2014. Up front I make a list of tagpoints. If I can tick off all of them, I know I should be content. It’s a reminder for my focus, but it’s also a reminder that you can’t put the bar at perfection in every detail every time. I evaluate each run on a sliding scale from “felt like crap” to “deep and utter flow and exitement”. Smiley can even earn a sticker on that scale if she is particularly magical! At the end of each competition I fill the rest of the page with a list of positives. That can be hard sometimes, but at the times when it’s hard to find the good in what we did, it is even more important to remind myself that I’m not a failure just because I failed. ✅ So, now I really want to hear about how you use your training diary! Do you have any ideas I could test and adopt? Or did I inspire you to start over? . . . . . #traningdiary #planformagic #dogtraining
Neither Smiley nor I have the emotional rezilience that has been needed to work on our soft turns more than a few times in the last year, but lately things changed! Soft turns are not as scary any more. Yesterday I even had the guts to try some pushes, even though that was going to cause her to shorten her stride and hit too high more often than ideal. We are in RC heaven right now, even though this is far from perfect! . . . . . #OTWagility #onetowatch #SmileyOTW #runningcontacts #rc #agilityrc #runnincontactsthatmakeyousmile #runningcontactsthatmakeyoucrysweatandswear #løpendefelt #løbefelt #rcturns #softturns #forcefreedogtraining #forcefree #playwithyourdog #dogslife #dogtraining #positivereinforcement #positivedogtraining #klikkertrening #clickertraining #clickerträning #agilitytraining #agility #agilitynorge #nkk #smoothcoatedbordercollie #smoothbc #bordercolliesofinstagram
Our guest does not like slippery floors, but he did really like this balance disc! I told him it's not a frisbee, but that he can play with it if he still wants to... . . . . . #herculesbywhitney #gulvredd #balansebrett #balancedisc #bordercollie #bordercollieslovers #slippery #quirky #agilitydog #wannaplay #curiosity #fearless
