This session didn't seem to go as well. I think I have figured out though that it first off helps for her to do some " energy wasting" before the plank and second helps if she is rocking back on her rear when I release her. At the end of the session she started doing the best because of those things, so I am going to try them with the next session and see how it goes ;)
I don't know what it is about the RDW, but I LOVE watching it! Even just plank work, it's fun to watch.
I'm trying to teach a RDW to my dog as well - we got the plank up to 17 inches this week! Part of our online Foundation Class with Silvia Trkman is teaching a running dog walk (or 2o2o, if you want). It's hard because I'll think we are doing great and Siliva will point out something that I didn't notice before. :P Back to square one.
That's excellent!! Silvia is very good and probably the best person I know at seeing the smallest detail. I have done it once I just have to do it again and theoretically this one should be easier since it isn't a re-train.

Good luck with your RDW! It's FUN!
They are fun :)
