We're new dog owners and are wondering which videos we should purchase.

Full Question:

Hi there,

We have a new (to us) border collie who is 4 1/2 months old, he has had some basic training from his breeder. But comes to us, his keen but new to it all dog owners. This puppy will no doubt know more than we will! (although we are quick to learn :o)

I have been in contact with Michael Ellis and he has recommended the Training with Food, Marker Training, and Basic Dog Obedience DVD? Or would we be doubling up?

Thanks for your time.

Kind regards,
Lizzie

Cindy's Answer:

I don’t believe you need the basic obedience video, but if you are interested in training more obedience behaviors (after the food & tug video skills are mastered) I would recommend:

Focused Heeling with Michael Ellis
Training the Retrieve with Michael Ellis

We also have videos on the jumps & send away.

Training the Jumps with Michael Ellis
Training the Send Away with Michael Ellis

I hope this helps!
