The Yard Needs Grass



Now that the snow is almost gone it will be time to get serious about the field and getting grass to grow after leveling it. The hill on the east side will have a terraced area for watching the action.

12 Weave Poles





April 14, 2011 my 2x2 weave poles arrived. That night we started training. I followed Susan Garrett's 2x2 Weave training DVD. We trained 2-5 times a day for 5 minutes. About 10 day in we had to take a break, the yard was either to muddy or too slippery with ice to train for about a week. For the last two days we have successfully run 12 weave poles 100% of the time. Fly is getting more drive through the poles every day now. We still need to build the confidence from a less easy angles on the approach. It is so much fun to see her run the weave. It is great she just knows what to do.
