In Ed's o/b video he says you should train only one exercise at a time. I noticed that he was training the sit and the down together. So my question is what did he mean? Is he saying take the dog all the way through the teaching, proofing, and correction stage before going to the next exercise or is he saying go through the teaching stage and then go on to the next exercise? I've watched this video about 10 times now and still can't figure out what he means. I noticed that he's even teaching the recall before the dogs been proofed. Another possibility is he might be saying teach only one thing in a session.
If you watch you'll see Dayma being taught the down and the sit. Later in the video you'll see him teaching the recall out on the schutzhund field. Actually you'll see him also teaching her how to walk on the leash with pops for pulling also.
If you mean when Ed says work on only one thing at a time I always thought it was when he was showing how to train say not running through a door and the dog was also jumping, jumping would be corrected and trained for separately.
Well what I gathered was working on any one problem, I don't think it is wrong to train commands together but it might take the dog longer to learn that way. I haven't ordered Ed's o/b dvd yet so I am not sure what you mean about it but I have seen him say train one thing at a time in other videos.
I've always trained down, sit and recall together and proofed them together in various combinations after the dog understood what was being asked. Maybe I've never had a stupid dog but I've never seen a dog not get sit after 4 or 5 minutes and I always thought just sitting even for 3 or 4 minutes at a time would get boring so I mixed it up with downs and stays or heres. That's just me though and I am so in now way an expert. Since generally you would release a dog to come to you after a position it seemed like a bonus to teach here at the same time for me or at least say the word.
To solve a problem like jumping or nipping it makes sense to not confuse the dog with other commands.

I think you have to remember that when he is creating the video he is using the dogs he has on hand to show us the exercise. So it is only for the purpose of the video that he is showing us him training multiple commands to the same dog in one session. Some of the training sessions he shows go longer then he recommends, but again it is only for the purpose of creating the video that he does that. The visual is to see how it is done but it's very important to listen to what he is saying.

I can't remember if he mentions it in the OB DVD, I think it is in the E-Collar DVD when he is working on recall with the one of his females. He does say that he worked her longer then he recommends for the purpose of creating the DVD.
