December Canine Parkour Anywhere Challenge!
For December, Brenna graciously invited me to offer a Parkour Challenge! With the recent introduction of the new "Anywhere Tracks" in All Dogs Parkour, I thought it would be fun to offer a Challenge where you could create a Level 1 Anywhere Regular Track entry that could - if you so choose - be entered for a title. So, the first part of this challenge is to create 8 video clips of your dog performing All Dogs Parkour Exercises. The ones that I have chosen to teach for this Challenge are: Get On 2 Front Feet, Get On 4 Feet, Go Under, Between, Jump Clean, Go Around, and Figure 8. If you are familiar with All Dogs Parkour, you are more than welcome to use other Exercises, but I am only teaching these Exercises as part of the Challenge. You can use any items that you have for your dog to perform these Exercises, but for the Get On 4 Feet, please keep the item under the height of your dog's elbow. If the item is elbow height or higher, you do have to spot/support, and I am not including instruction on that skill for this challenge. (Again, if you are familiar with ADP and you know how to spot/support, you are welcome to use something higher and do so). Your dog does not have to perform all 7 of the Exercises. For Level 1, four "repeats" are allowed. Just remember that a "repeat" has to be performed on/with a different item. (Figure 8 can only be performed once). I provide a general description of this Challenge in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaPcYpf0ep8 And, in this video, I teach the seven Exercises. (I can provide this in typed form, if any of you prefer that). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1VZvCWWp18 In the Anywhere Track, "Off-List" variations of Exercises are allowed, and I address that in the video. As you create your videos, feel free to post them in this forum, and I will give you feedback. I will let you know if any changes are needed for the clip to meet All Dogs Parkour submission criteria.
