Jowhar Karim Webboard User Reg: 11-16-2011 Posts: 5 Loc: Offline	Hello, I am rather new to "working" with dogs besides conformation training. My short term goal is to accomplish a BH title within 12 months. There are so many videos available, where do I start? The dogs being trained are 14 months and 9 months. Thank you.

Jowhar Karim Webboard User Reg: 11-16-2011 Posts: 5 Loc: Offline	Yes, marker train, not with clicker but yes command. Does this make sense? I also use treats as well as awards. As a beginner where do I start as far as DVDs? I do not want to use any compulsary methods at this time.

You need to have passed that before you can trial for a SchH 1, II, or III. Along with a written test,if it is your first time doing a BH. MY DOGS...MY RULES

Will Rambeau Moderator Reg: 01-25-2003 Posts: 5983 Loc: Idaho Offline	I'd suggest practicing the heeling pattern *without* your dog until you have it down firm - the judge doesn't call out the directions ( they do in AKC OB for instance ) and it's easy to forget when you're under the strain of actual trial conditions. I'd view both the DVG and SchH USA trial manuals, that'd be very helpful: http://germanshepherddog.com/members/rule_books.htm http://www.dvgamerica.com/rules.html As far as DVDs, I'd recommend the following: Handler Training for a Companion "B" http://leerburg.com/112.htm Handler Training for a Schutzhund I Trial - http://leerburg.com/113.htm Hope that helps!

steve strom Webboard User Reg: 03-17-2006 Posts: 4203 Loc: Offline	Whichever dvd's you want is fine Jowhar. Its heeling, sits, recall. Basic stuff. I'm sure The ME dvd's would be helpful. I'm just focusing on your goal of a BH more then anything.Pay attention to the temperament portion too. I can only remember one dog not passing because of the ob part. The dogs I've seen fail were in the temperament part, things like the chip scanner and behaving in a group of people on a loose leash. Keep those things in mind.
