Latent Learning

Ok so apparently Spry is a latent learner!!!

Last Weds I used her for demo to show how we teach jumping, and it was her first time seeing a jump. Well, being asked to do anything with it. There has often been jumps at 8 or 12 at the building that she could have easily hopped over, but she's never even considered going between teh uprights before. And last week she sure didn't seem to get what I was asking what with all the attempts at 1RTO!

Well Tues when I was practicing, I let her out of her crate, she runs out onto the floor, jumps a 12" jump perfectly, and turns to look at me like "Hey mom, I thought about it, and I'm pretty sure this is what you wanted last time!!! How bout it?" She is really, just too adorable for words sometimes.
