There were negative and positive comments, from people who do indeed understand what they are looking at.

Nope.
If they post a video for all the world to see , people will see ( and comment ) on both the good and bad. They take the risk by posting it , hoping to reap the rewards ( and it's an advertisement, let's be honest here ).
However....when it's not a good video, they risk knowlegable viewers commenting on the obvious flaws seen. Just like what is happening here.

You'd be guessing wrong.
You posted an amateurish sales video that had a lot of easy to spot training errors in it. You ought to be embarrassed about posting something like that, instead you are letting your ego do the talking and trying to defend your poor excuse of a sales video.
I hope that your customers get more value out of your services than that video shows.

I guess my comment would be that the person making this video could have said something like,
"Here is a video of a 7 month old Mal in my training program. While I understand there are several "mistakes" in this video, please keep in mind the age of this dog."
Not sure if it would have made a difference, but it would have been an honest presentation of the dog.
It is really tough to post videos, like Will explained. However, I see more videos like this being posted with supposed "trainers" egos being boosted from excellent comments from people that REALLY do not know what they are looking at or for in a PPD or even Sport dog.
A lot of pet people would be impressed because they cannot see the mistakes or training errors in the video, or any training video for this type of venue.
You will not find that here, since A LOT of us KNOW what we are looking at.
Not trying to be harsh, but rather, trying to be honest. Admit the mistakes and stick around. This board really is a wealth of good information and training advice.

I'm curious Mike, do you have video of the dog now to see how he's turned out? Nothing personal but I'm always a little skeptical about the whole we train for real life scenarios, this ain't just sport stuff.
