Kavik Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Hi guys Been a while since I posted a video, so here's one I took yesterday of Kaos doing a send away at 40 paces. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 I guess people don't think teaching your dog to run away from you on command is as interesting as teaching it to come to you It actually took quite some time to get this distance and speed!

I think it's clever ,although mine alwys run away from me but not on command Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I was impressed seeing as I have been teaching Brock to send away over a fence all last week. He is never going to send with much enthusiasm I think. So well done on your send! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAX Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Hi Kavik, I was wondering why you ran out there with him? How long did that take you to train? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 No real reason I run too - I didn't used to, but then thought if I am doing this to help with distance work in agility (as opposed to an exercise on its own for obedience etc) I am not always going to be standing in the same spot afterwards. I have been working on it since he was a pup, but took a break from it for a while, started back on it a few months ago. 40 paces is now our standard run, now trying to increase it.

PAX Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Ok thanks Kavik, I was curious as I have taught my girl similar but with Obedience in mind so I stay at the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spotted Devil Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I love it, Kavik! I've taught Ziggy a different aspect to this - he will sprint flat out away from me and go "around" an object I point to, then return to me. It's lots of fun and a great way to break up the mental concentration he needs for heel work. Hopefully it will come in handy by the time we get to doing agility!

skip Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I taught something like this too, Spotted Devil. But after using jumps for a little while I did it more on our walks around gum trees etc . So now they will scoot out on an "out" command, run round the nearest tree and come back. But you don't get many trees in the agility course and I recently found they have forgotten the "out" with the "over" the jump part. Think I'll give the trees a break for a while.
