    Hey!

     

    Great, you’re building up for a physical point of view too 🙂

     

    We teach the soft terms slightly different, however, you could use the concept what I’m doing in this video below using a barrier (of course you will need to teach it first of all so she understands not to go round or run into the barrier!) but it just sets a much more obvious criteria which means you can reward and be more structured

     

    Loose + Soft Turns 6 – Sequences

     

    Also super boring, but you could do this exercise – again using the barrier if needed once taught

    Loose + Soft Turns 5 – H Grid

     

    Loose turns are horrible – my dogs think so way too haha but unfortunately you can gain or lose a lot of time on them so you have to do these boring exercises
