Asia Practicing Tracking, Daly City, Westlake Shopping Center, Southgate and Lake Merced Blvd, February 3, 2021

 

Very busy shopping center with lots of cars and people and traffic. Perfect tracking

Full track from strava map from Patty and Yuri.

This is only a single section. Started on Southgate.

Showed her all the corners to start and she got going towards Lake Merced Blvd

Then got the turn into the shopping center and then the right into the middle!

Asia practicing tracking at Safeway on Fulton and 48th, San Francisco, December 19 2020

 

Had another person lay a track for Asia with their dog in San Francisco

Didn't know the direction of the track. Just had a Strava map. 

Parked the car and showed her back and forth on La Playa and parking lot. Took her to the middle and she needed a couple of extra checks back and forth. Then she got it going in front of the store. Turned right behind the store and turned right again on to 48th. Turned into parking lot and then I had her continue to follow it across Fulton and into the park. 

Then we went to the car and rewarded with tennis balls and treats!!

Asia practicing tracking, Stonestown Shopping Mall, San Francisco, December 10 2020

 

Had another person lay a track with their dog around Stonestown shopping center. They walked their dog the night before. 

They sent me a Strava map and I looked at it only to confirm the turns were correct and to give her a treat as a reward. 

She got all the turns and street crosses at all the correct places. 

She was thorough and very aware of what she was doing. Very thoughtful and careful.

47th and Santiago

One thing I did differently this search was I spaced out the food the most and I also started to give rewards directly from me, rather than on the ground. This will start to move her to working on searches from other people.

She got every turn, even the diagonals across the street. She needed extra help on a couple , but eventually got them all.
