I'm just beaming with pride! Today's session saw some big leaps in a short time. His first flight here is the biggest he's taken, in terms of wing flapping. This one was more than just a jump, a few wing flaps in there'
Also this was an accomplishment on terms of the distance between the perches (maybe 2 feet apart) and the biggest difference in height so far.
Lastly, "target" is no longer used. It's been fully replaced with "come" and "perch". "Come" is for going anywhere, "perch" is specifically used for leaving me. He is only treated when he returns to his perch.
To paraphrase Alicia keys, this boy is on fire!!
Yes the video is heavily edited to remove stretches of nonresponsiveness on his part, and a couple parts where I take a bit longer to get on with it. Cut over 2 minutes from it.
