Hi Forrest and Everybody!

Here's option 2. We added some focus exercises "extras" at the end too. ;) I hope you'll enjoy them.

OMG - you two are amazing.  Very fun to watch.

Aww, he's so cute. His focus is to die for, you can't fool that smart doggy!

What great teamwork, good stuff!

We are sooo going to miss watching your video of week 5 : (

It's always fun watching your teamwork!

Beautiful, Lexi. 

I have a technical input for the 1:00 mark. At this point in the video you're at what I consider the 3rd position around the 4 position clock. When I'm to the point where I'm working at the 3 and 4 positions, I always reward from the left hand - high head. We are getting into what looks like heel position at this point, so I'm intentional then to reward in a way that starts to impact the head. Chopper already has beautiful head position, so it's not as critical from him. However, we also can tell (moments in your other video) that reward placement really does impact his body position, too, so I think it's a good for him in this way. And, if you use this for another dog, you'll have the specifics. 

Love that head position at 1:45!!!! And he's just so solid in his understanding of this!

That adjustment he does at 2:19 is brilliant. He's really working!

Love the fun stuff at the end. He's really got that "up" move down now!!!!
