Hi Wendy U know me sooo welll...lol

I cant wait to start doing the serious stuff. At the moment we have done foundtion work with targeting and she picked that up with ease. I dont think I will have a prob, was just wondering if there were any out there. I ve been around the circuit for a while and the only sight hounds i have seen lately are Greyhounds, whippets, Italians.. i see a few doing conformation, they definielty have high energy and I believe thats what puts people off in having them

HI Delta as mentioned teaches "positive" only. You are not to use correction collars etc. The NDTF shows how to use all types of equipment and training techniques. Cheers

Hi Thanks for the replys and encouragements. We have no probs with the recalls at this stage. I live on 50 acres so recalling was number one lesson. She is my shadow and is very good most of the time, but she is only 12 months so I dont mind if she plays up occassionally, I am looking at doing lure coursing later. I have wanted a pharaoh hound for a long time, ( I love challenges).lol There is something regal about them!! She has learnt a new skill of herding with the Borders (yes its true) Cheers

Silly me put this question in the wrong forum. Take 2 - Does anyone know if there have been any Pharaoh Hounds Titled in Obed/Agility in Victoria? My girl has started her training and is very receptive to training, (occasionally has moments of feralness) She is on her way to Ch Title for Conformation but I want to achieve more with her. Im already trialling Borders & a GSD. Cheers

Hi Before allowing the dog off lead start doing recalls on long lead in different surroundings, proofing that. Also it would be best to teach the dog to sit & wait when opening a door and u walking out first then call the dog. (on lead ). Try this with any part of the house then the main door. This also helps when getting the dog out of the car. Teach them to wait and only come out when u call them. There is a DVD you can get called Really Reliable recall, it focuses on recalling in all situations. Cheers

Hi I have just about finished the course. Decided to do the course as i regular compete in Ob, agil, herd. conformation, I am also an Instructor at my local club and have my own business. I also am a registered breeder. Apart from the accreditation (which the public like to see) it has given me more insight into the world of dogs - scientifically speaking. Its a great course and you will learn a lot. Cheers
