Hi Polona. Thank you for the feedback and I hope your computer situation has improved!!
So here is my next video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaL6Cw2vSyU
I realize I have a lot of holes in my foundation… when he was a puppy he would give up super easily and leave work (or worse would start to running the fence line and alarm bark!) when we would do “toy switching” games so I didn’t really push it, then he had to have OCD surgery … not to give excuses but just for backstory :). Our year together has been tough! I can definitely see it is hurting us now though as he was obsessed with the fun, long toy in my hand and not the ball.
I am trying to go back now and work it now with some success. I did throwing with food and then switched to identical purple balls (I included it at the end of this youtube clip – I’m not sure if it’s outside the scope of this course though but I Thought I would put it in for reference). Even with identical balls he still had a preference for one over the other!
Also, I realized I misread your comment and was sending him to a thrown ball in the tunnel section of the exercise – my mistake.
The jump section was better. We did a longer distance – him chasing toy and us racing to a static toy.
