Debbie High Webboard User Reg: 01-03-2003 Posts: 704 Loc: Offline	I am certainly looking forward to it! Michael's ability to teach an old dog(me, not my dog) new tricks will be put to the test. Will, I'll chop the onions for you.

For when the boys start to come around, I am going to need a real good protection dog, that won't allow any sneaking out or IN. At any rate, I am going to do what I can to get there! Brandon

If so, I'm in! When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.

Karin Andreen Webboard User Reg: 06-12-2008 Posts: 9 Loc: Minnesota Offline	I have a question for those of you who have been to a Michael Ellis seminar. I'm going to be sending in my registration for this seminar today or tomorrow (hopefully for one of the last working spots), but I'm wondering if three days in a row will be a bit much for a 3 month old pup. I'm new to Mondio/Protection sports, although I've trained my Shelties & Belgian Sheepdogs (Groenendael) in a variety of AKC sports. I'm getting a Groenendael pup from Holland the end of this month. He'll be 3 months the weekend of the Ellis seminar, and I want to try to walk that fine line between getting some really good socialization/training/foundation work without pushing him too far. Do you think 3 days straight is a little much for a 3 month old? Would I be better off working him 2 days and maybe coming as a spectator (dragging him along for some socialization, of course<g> the other day? What do you experienced people think? I want to get as much as I can out of the weekend, but don't want to overload the poor little guy! Thanks!

I would not hesitate to go three days with the little guy. He will have had a month to acclimate in his new surroundings and it will be great socialization for him.

My puppy Rush did 3 days with Michael at 10 weeks old, and I am embarrassed to say it was his first car ride too. 3 hours each way. He did fine. here's a video taken with Michael at that seminar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEJ8wudwB28 your puppy will have a lot of "down" time during the weekend, so I wouldn't worry about overwork or anything of that nature.
