My dog wants to bite the decoy upper body... if I or the decoy let him go one time(up), he goes back almost all the time (off leash). He also wants to bite skin (hands or hankles) and he goes deep in the suite to get contact with the man. He is calm in bite work and he is very defensive, he always looks in the eyes of the decoy when not biting. I do not work with experience decoys and he could be dangerous off leash. I belive he has fight drive because he is confortable when biting and with no prey item (civil,no suite,no sleave, no tug or no movement from a person) he still wants to bite as soon as he hears the ''watch command'' . Look at some picture of him biting the legs on my web site in the ring français page of http://www.opk-9.com
My question his: For ring sport, the dog has to bite the first thing in front of him (usaly the legs). So sould I traine him on leash and traine the decoys to not let him bite harms, back and shoulder (because that what he wants and does when we do to much off leash)? So when the time comes he will not have problems to go up (in need) and will prefer legs because of conditioning?
Thanks
I have some guys I train with in mondio ring that moved thier bulldog to the upper body to make training easier. He learned to bite low on the leg and pull thier feet out from under them. This wouldn't be a bad thing in the trial, full points, but hard to accomplish training when your on the ground all the time. If you want it straight from the trainer his name is Keith Jobe and he is from Amarillo Texas. I believe he is on the board for the mondio ring assoc. so look on that web site.
