Hi, everyone! This is my first time at this discussion board. I am a totally novice into this enthusiastic world of working dog training. I have been researching for a perfect male puppy for a while. My two favorites are GSD and APBT. I am still debating so much which breed I should go for. Gameness or Versatility?
I just received the Flinks' building drive, focus and grip video tape. I was stunned about the depth of this tape. Wooooooowwwwwwww!!!
My question is that who keeps the prey item after the training session. . I know that the dog should be taught in such a way that the prey item is not his, but the handler's. Therefore, the handler should hide the prey item afterwards <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Please help me with your advice and suggestions. Thanks a lot. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Lonny, well said. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
Why would chokeout feel he has to hide the prey item from his dog??
It belongs to me the handler. Mine to do with as I see fit. Help me with this one. Am I missing something here. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Thank you Lonny and Crabtree.
You are right, "hiding" is not the right term because it just belongs to the handler.
Very sharp, very sharp, and I like it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
In memory of. Who died? Look at this place. I leave the house for a week and everything’s a mess. Who's in charge here? VanCamp! Somebody catch me as I faint. LOL. Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do on my 3 day weekend. See you all then!
Who keeps the article? If it is my toy, does this mean a solid out at the end and boom lesson over. I have been avoiding this as he mouths a little anyway. He is too strong to take it away. I used to use two toys and trick him, but of course he usually got both. or I got bit trying to snag the dropped one. I have even tried new toys that he cannot hold as well. Amazing how well they adapt.
What we do at our club--the handler gets behind the dog while he has the item and lifts from behind around the waist and then when the dog drops it, kick it away and have the helper tease him with it and then put it away. That way, the dog is left wanting it more than he had before. If you're alone with no decoy, tie him out, and then when he has the item, lift him from behind, kick the booty away and then tease him with it and make it disappear. I very seldomly out the dog because I don't want him to anticipate the out, but when I do it's a command that he doesn't disobey.
