More and more often Willow is having success with autodown with us! https://youtube.com/shorts/CdReMHznD_c?si=JPnNa_2DQijjxvf0

https://youtube.com/shorts/ybsa6otwu7g?si=Cfoa8IzlnR8T4ea5 This was yesterday.Thought she was going to ace it on the first try! But, just a stretch. After this she had a couple good ones. Then when I thought I was going to be recording our victory video she had really rough one, really waited it out. We pushed through and switched it up to speed free and downs. This morning I was so proud of her, she was doing much better - of course I didn’t catch any of those ones! She got a little stuck when we got to our driveway and Dan was there and a neighbour was shovelling- but she got there!

Though I’m feeling pretty happy with Willow’s progress this morning, I know this could happen again, want to make sure we respond in the best way we can.

Nala day 2 of practicing after her first training session this Wednesday. Doing great so far!
