Focus today was to keep the energy high and if Suki was moving nicely and ahead of me I wanted to throw in some rear crosses. Short session again, around 1 min. The video camera wasn't angled quite right, but you get the idea. At 50sec she stops and self rewards by throwing the ball around instead of retrieving to me. I did get her to re-engage, but decided no to throw the ball again and instead offered praise for her enthusiasm and headed in. Not sure if she's not retrieving because I've gone to long or if she just doesn't understand the rules of the game yet. I hope to do one more 1-2min session later this afternoon. Still not exercising Suki other than our quick sessions, and I'm working my other dog before Suki each time to further increase her energy level.
