Tracy Brown Webboard User Reg: 12-20-2004 Posts: 381 Loc: Mississippi Offline	I recently lost my trusted helper to a prior commitment to Uncle Sam. Now, I have a less skilled helper. The last 2 training sessions my pup has released his grip on the mini-sleeve and bite the helper on the leg just above the knee. It happened so quickly I don't know if it happened during a counter or what. This happens when using the clatterstick to touch Donut' s back. Donut hasn't done that with me or Greg his former helper. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Ava 12/29/04 Loco 10/8/06

Give him time to get to know new helper. I don't get the counter part with 4mo dog though??? v---- SARAC ph-wannabe.blogspot.com

Tracy Brown Webboard User Reg: 12-20-2004 Posts: 381 Loc: Mississippi Offline	I thought he might have lost his initial grip and was countering to get a another bite. He is quick to rebite when he looses grip or doesn't have a full mouth bite. Ava 12/29/04 Loco 10/8/06

Helpers are hard to find, and the clueless ones that have will need to be teached.

Tracy Brown Webboard User Reg: 12-20-2004 Posts: 381 Loc: Mississippi Offline	No sport yet. Just trying to get his grip set. Started working him in sch tracking. If everything falls into place I'll have a good sch club within driving range. But would also like to get him involved with ASR for a more realistic protection. As far as I know there ae no French Ring or other ring sports in my neck of the woods. Ava 12/29/04 Loco 10/8/06

Send your decoy our way and we'll do the rest. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> The Fetz dog: http://www.leerburg.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/79673/page/25
