S5W20F10 on 3 start tracks with one 90 degree right turn each.


Probably should have made one a left turn, but I was happy that just on arrival a person and dog playing fetch left the field. My tracks did cross the path that the dog was running on, so for that reason, the scent distraction, I left her SWF pattern the same instead of increasing it.

River getting out of the car was just really much more excited than she ever has been on a track outing. I did make her go potty even this he obviously had the track scent already by the way she wanted to get to the start flag. She downed for the start and got up and just sniffed like a cone zone from the article, back and forth with her nose in a broader sweep, but 3-4 ft out she focused in to a straight line track.

On reaching each of the right turns, I can see her pick up her and snap her head to the right at the turn, so I stop. She will continue a short distance. On track 1 she course left and then back to the track on the right. Interesting that on the next tracks she lifted her head and did the snap look but only went through the turn and then swung right back to the track.
