Leerburg and/or ME video? I have quite a few at my house...but still need to watch one or two of them. Don't have a favorite yet. Just thought it would be fun to hear everyone's opinion!
I was thinking about getting the tug video, too. Question for you, though....do you think it's worth getting it if JD already has a great tug and is learning very quickly with the assistance our helper at training? (Did that make sense? It's about 5am and I'm not fully awake yet! First latte coming up soon....where is that damn butler anyway???? )
Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Edit reason: Still trying to make sense at 5am!
Marker Training. I only have a couple... but still, I see marker training as a hard one to beat.
Glad you've liked the Marker video. I thought it was pretty great, too. I haven't had a chance to watch the Focused Heeling one yet, but will try to do so very soon so that you'll be able to take a look at it, too.
We're gonna have our own LB/ME video library pretty soon!
The Michael Ellis food video is really in depth and interesting. Anybody can do the work from that one. But its especialy good if you need help with focus, anxiety or any other socialization issues. I'd have to say that one is my favorite.
The marker training dvd has a great segment where Cindy trains Ed. That alone is worth the purchase price!
Building Drive and Focus and the ME tug video are great, but most of the info really applies to people who do sport and competition training.
I kind of wish there was a tug "lite" version for pet owners. There are some really awesome concepts in the tug dvd that anyone can use, but the dvd is so long that it can be a little overwhelming if you are just learning.
I still wouldn't discourage anyone from buying it. Its really, really good!
Dana, if you are doing sport with your dog you definitely won't regret the purchase of the tug dvd. Get it!
I just wanted to be sure before I spent the $$ on it. Not complaining about the cost, it's just that I have alot of things on my "list" and I'm trying to choose wisely and prioritize.

hmmm....that's hard -really hard -they all have their strengths. I agree "Building Drive.." is more for people already engaged in the sports -but Bernie is awesome to see -I gave this one to my trainer. I got alot out of Dominant -I don't have that dog but am studying behavior so that's an important one overall and Ed is just so clear.
I have to say when I saw "The Power of Training Dogs with Food" so many lightbulbs went off...I had wished I had watched this one before markers...
I am in the middle of "Focused Heeling.." now and you definately need to watch it in pieces..I love to see actual people stumbling along like me!
I really love "Marker Training". That's the one I find myself returning to the most frequently for a refresher and some inspiration. From this one you can get just about anywhere.
