Jump Training

Roo's always been a pretty good jumper.  I can count the number of times she's knocked a bar at a trial and they have been  few and far between.  Three months ago, I moved her from 24 to the 26 inch jump height class.  Since then, I've seen more bars come down.  This past weekend, we NQ'd 3 out of our 4  runs because of a knocked bar.  They were all on a send.  

This morning, jump training began as I am not sure why these bars are coming down.  We did 75 jumps and 2 bars came down.  One was due to my late cue and the other from her over enthusiasm at the startline.  Otherwise, she looked good.  

Here's a video from this morning.

Later on, I came back to work on amping her up at different distances from the startline.

    Cerebrum science says we can make new neurons and change our mind designs so perhaps there's something to faking a grin
