Finally He Gets It!

Brian and the See-Saw is what I'm referring to!

Brian has always had a See-Saw phobia, I'm not entirely sure why as he has never had a bad experience on it but he either jumps off mid air or generally refuses to go on it.

Since we have been going to our new club every time he has had to go on the see-saw there has been me one side and Lucy the other making a really big fuss of him and giving him treats and his favorite, a bum rub!

Tonight we were moving to the back of the arena and had to pass the see-saw to get to the start and Brian ran up it, steadied himself and waited at the bottom for a fuss! We then went on to do our course which involved the see-saw and he did the same again so I think we may finally have cracked it! (The picture is of a dreaded see-saw moment at a UKA show earlier in the year-a few seconds later he flew off it mid air!)

Megan had a good class tonight, after missing 3 weeks I wasn't sure how well it would go but she remembered her dog walk contact, is progressing nicely with her channel weaves (we were doing entries from further back tonight) and she did some good jumping so all in all a good nights training really.
