This is Danielle’s Advanced run. One jump and the signs are easier. There are two classes below this, Novice and Intermediate where the handler moves through a shorter course with the dog on leash

This is Danielle’s excellent run. There are two jumps in excellent and an additional sit-stay at the end to test the dog’s ability to stay when the handler walks off.

Danielle and Rabbit returned to the Rally Ring today for the first time in three years due to Rabbit’s multiple rehabs. He only needed 7 Masters points to get his Rally Champion (RACH) title but Danielle was unwilling to risk his health even for something she spent three years trying to obtain. Rabbit started his Rally journey as a novice in 2019.

Great things come to those who do things the right way, regardless of the time and effort it takes.

Danielle and Rabbit earned three perfect scores of 100 in Masters, Excellent, and Advanced… along with High Combined Triple for the trial and their RACH. It was an unbelievable performance and a great day.

Rabbit’s shockwave vet recommended using an air mattress to work on his stability and core strength. (We have been working on stable surfaces for over a year now.) So, I bought a $14 inflatable twin mattress from Amazon, and placed two solid surface boards on top. This makes it just a little easier for the dog, while still challenging core and stability. (Stable surface on an unstable base, like a slightly more stable Bosu ball that’s turned upside down)

In these pics, Rabbit is just standing still in a square stand, but he’s still working pretty hard to keep from tipping over. You can see the board under his front feet is dipped slightly lower than the one under his rear feet. Dogs should carry about 70% of their weight on the front end, so I can see he’s perfectly distributing his weight here.

As part of this exercise, I also walked around him in each direction. He follows me by turning his head, which shifts his weight in each direction and from front to back as I move around him.

I am so incredibly pleased at his posture, stability, and proprioception. Sometimes, it’s hard to see how far you have come until you have an ‘Ah ha!’ moment like this!

If there were some way to shrink the air mattress to a more manageable size, then I would include this particular setup and exercise in my next class. 😪

This is a short clip showing Danielle doing some stretching with Rabbit. Stretching is as important for dogs as it is for humans during physical activity.
