I couldn’t resist any longer and set up Silvia Trkman’s Lesson 5 sequence this morning. The video includes every repetition and a lot of mistakes, plus some late verbal cues (one was so late, I think Lil had already taking the jump when I said WRAP… big OOPS on my part) but I was SO happy with Lil’s energy and speed that I just kept going.
An extension jump after a tunnel is a difficult jumping scenario for Lil so the fact that she jumped #7 so beautifully once and pretty well some other times made my day!
I don’t think you can see how YAHOO Lil was in the video, which I think caused some early knocked bars, but she seemed to figure things out without losing her YAHOO-ness or speed. I feel like everything is starting to fall into place and that Lil’s confidence and jumping skills have improved enough that she can now jump while running super fast!!! I am not sure the angle of the camera accurately conveys her ground speed but she was really running! 
She is such a great athlete! I love that magic, motivating ball!
Thanks Dianne! And yes, that is Lil’s magic ball for sure!!!!
What a wonderful little girl you have. I wish my westie had that kind of drive. 🙂 Keep up the great work!
Thanks Harry! Lil is so much fun! Do you have any videos on YouTube of your Westie’s runs? I’d love to see them!
