Standing still. Try luring around your body with both hands.

I might give a bit of extra time if people need it.
He can do forward fine but backwards he will only do if I move... but he only started learning it on Sunday though so really chuffed how well he is doing already (especially since time has been limited with Christmas). We still have two days to work on me being able to stand still lol.

I taught backwards circles by putting her in the puppy pen and giving the backing cue. Backwards circles are definitely much trickier.

I watched a YouTube video where the woman used a pile of books for them to circle around and using the sofa and a wee table to give them a corner to back into... he got that bit really fast and he got going round me quickly too... but I obviously moved with him to make it easier at first so it just getting him to go round while I stay still. It is really fun to teach though :) Jake can't do it though lol.
 
I've got a video of our progress. I'm not expecting any points for it as we lure him into position and he slips up but I'm pleased nonetheless :) Not bad considering we started training it Monday!
Please ignore my state I'd just got out the shower ! :eek:
My excited voice at the end indicates how happy am I he finished 'correctly'
 
I have been at my parents since yesterday and what with Bounty dying and it been christmas I haven't done much trick training with Io.

If it is ending tomorrow I will see about uploading a video on Monday morning of a boring trick she already knows :eek: as I haven't been doing much with her past few days with regards to new tricks we've been doing.

That looks like great progress. Just keep increasing your criteria slowly. Luring into position is fine, I'm just looking at the circles :)

Change of closing time: as people haven't had a lot of practice time due to Christmas I'll give a few extra days. This trick will now close at midnight on Tuesday.
 
Glad the closing time has changed :D I thought I had missed the deadline as I was out last night so didn't manage to post our progress in time so will get it posted tonight or tomorrow afternoon :)
 
Sorry it's taken me so long to get the leaderboard posted..been so busy..

I have some videos of this though they also include going round an item. I think it might've been for the previous challenges thread actually. I'm not luring but the top bit is cut off so I don't know if they count...

Good job :) Cut off midnight Tuesday :)
 
This is mine, sorry for my jammies and slippers :eek: Jake can't go backwards... and I had to grit my teeth at one point as Arrow caught my finger grabbing a bit of sausage!

Well done :)

Is anyone else in on this one? Hanwombat, have we got another one ready to go at midnight? ;)

No :001_unsure: I have been at my parents, it probably won't be on until sometime tomorrow.

Won't be one of the tricks I've currently been teaching as we have done much since being at my parents for nearly a week.

That's fine :) Sorry, I've been up since 4am and I'm going a little crazy! :eek: Any trick is fine :)

Thanks!

It's probably a really easy trick :eek: but as I say I haven't done any training in 5 days as been busy at parents :/ currently been teaching push, beg and some backwards stuff but she is no where near ready, so we will do when she already knows. If I get to be trick master again and it hasn't been done then she can do one of her new ones :)

That sounds great. I think this one was too hard as not many people have done it, so an easy one will be better :)
 
I'll be uploading our effort later! We've not had much time to learn it but she's just about got it :)
