Week 4 - wrapping my head around the week...



This week is easily as tricky as it seems.  Today's first walk though of the list revealed the steps I missed last week. Doh!  Love this method. Deficiencies are quickly revealed and hopefully corrected.

So, here's how I'm going to approach this week, given the linear thinker that I am...

Every session: QT on leash, followed by warm up with distracted LL, then distracted heeling with AS.  All exercises include Exercise Finish at each revolution 

2 x 5 - Figure 8's (hula hoops) 5 in each direction 
2 x 5 - Left About Turns 
3 min Place with distractions (Place Board)
1min - Stand (Place board) - Approached from all four directions 
5 - Supported Stand Circles (Place Board)
1 min - Sit/Stay - 6' with distractions (Place Board) (Eliminated once she has 1 min @ 15')
3 min - Sit/Stay - 15' with distractions * (Place Board)
2 x 5 - Recall to SSIF (saying Piper, come, yes, good girl) - 6' (two Front Place Boards)
2 x 5 - Down (on ground or hay bales)

End with 30min QT in kennel

*After Sit/Stay reaches 1 min 15' with distractions, I'll add the stranger approach.

Does this look like a sound plan?  Any comments or adjustments?
