Here are a few videos I've taken and just got around to getting uploaded. The trial ones are from an AKC trial Sookie and I did in November, where she got 2 legs toward Beginner Novice and 2 legs toward Rally Novice.

First one: Sookie's 2nd Beginner Novice obedience leg. We really weren't ready for BN, but let someone talk us into it. Sookie did much, much better the first day for her first leg, but she was very distracted during this one and her auto-sits absolutely fell apart (perfect in training, still not sure how to fix that). Anyway, this was a Q so don't be scared if you are considering trying it. Just do it!

This was her first AKC Rally Novice leg. Sorry the video quality is kinda crappy, my videographer wasn't sure how to work my camera.

Nova does a few tricks before dinner time:

Sookie playing the "clicker game". I'm working on shaping a bow, which I'm going to call "splat". She gets a little silly, and is so quick to change what behavior she's offering that I sometimes have a hard time catching it at the right moment, but I'm getting better and better.

Thank you for sharing these videos! I especially enjoyed watching the video of Sookie working on "Splat". She put a big smile on my face and I had to giggle as I watched her. What a great way to start a Monday morning.

Great fun to watch and get a glimpse of your poodles' accomplishments and personalities. Sookie sure seems to give it her all, she really looks intent on trying, pleasing and succeeding. Nova is quite the eager trickster, definitely having fun while showing her stuff. Everything you do with your poodles radiates the joy you take in having them. Thanks for sharing some of that joy!

That is "boing" which she learned before "splat" so sometimes when she gets frustrated with splat, she reverts to boinging in an attempt at getting a treat. I should really video that because it's hilarious.
