Yes I am interested for sure . I will try to find any others down here that may be interested as well I have found two extremes so far .there's , Those that think your training attack dogs and get upset if you suggest Schutzhund , and then there's the idiots that think it would be a great idea to get the dog to bite someone regardless I just have to sort out who is interested in the SPORT of Schutzhund . (There's got to be more people in Townsville) I'll keep looking :-) PS thanks for your reply Pupster . Enjoy your training .

RE. Red Fox Thanks very much for your words of encouragement I'll keep working on BH and Obedience . As he seems slow to mature teaching myself to teach him should keep me busy for a while :-) I have three DVDs of Gottfried Dildei (basic obedience :Advanced Obedience : A modern view of correction ) Also two DVDs of Ivan Balananov ( Clear communication :: The game ) Hopefully I'm heading in the right direction :-)

I'm training away and enjoying it . Not up to comp stage . Maybe after winter , as the summer sure puts the brakes on training . I think I'll put more time into tracking while it's cool. I think it's to early for comp as he needs more work on focus Real good without distraction Ha Ha Ha PS thank you for your reply

Hi I'm up here in Townsville ,and I wonder if anyone up here is interested in Schutzhund training Up here . I have a working line German Shepherd (Alpinebase Hank (Ocky). He's 14 months old and I think his brain is starting to catch up to his body Ha Ha Ha I am training him as per DVDs and books . It would help if there are others up here with a common interest
