Ramachandran Subramanian Webboard User Reg: 08-02-2004 Posts: 809 Loc: Chennai, India Offline	Helga successive retrieves and send away Here is a video of my girl helga bringing 6 dumbbells back to me in succession. Initially she thinks that it is a scenting exercise and gets a bit confused, but soon she figures out that it is a simple retrieve one after the other. Next is us working on the send away. It is a work in process. As always your constructive critiques are sought after.

If so I would "randomly" reward between the different retrieves. That gives each article equal value instead of knowing she has to do all six before a reward comes. Just a thought! old dogs LOVE to learn new tricks

I cannot confine him like I can my other dogs, because he is small enough to get through, under the steel grill gates.

I think I am going to take the mark idea for myself... I haven't got the send away DVD and have done some send away with Zuki but I am not always successful at having her look at it first from a distance.
