Flye Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Can anyone recommend me a vet in the Scarborough/Innaloo/Osborne Park area? Likewise a basic group training course... I have been to the RSPCA ones before, but unsure how much they have changed in 8 years. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazzat Xolo Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 CBR, talk to Mason's Mom - she has one she can sell you Sounds good. Anyone have a book about tracking they want to sell also? (And save me an order from book depository!) I can give you the little booklet they gave us at Tracking. What else do you need? Thats about it! I already have a dog that loves to put his nose to the ground and snuffle along. So now I need to learn! Wazzat this thread: http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?showtopic=185342 has pics of tracking harnesses. Mine is like the style 2 one I can bring it to the show on July 3rd if you like ?

ozjen Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I know everyone is going to think I am an idiot but Lincoln loves tracking smells on the ground and I figure instead of telling him off I will do some training with it so he knows it's appropiate in certain times andnot others. Anyway the point of that is anyone know a place I can buy a tracking harness in Perth without having to order online? You can use any type of harness for tracking including the car harnesses. Personally I found that the car harness was inclined to slip more on Jenna and the tracking one sold at tracking although slightly big sits better on her. The tracking ones are more a strap across the chest and one around the body leaving the legs more free movement and encouraging the dog I suppose to lean into the harness more as it tracks. Many of the trackers also add the wool seatbelt cover things to the chest strap for added comfort. Keep the harness only for tracking and only put it on just before a track as it helps mark the behaviour you are seeking. At tracking we don't even put it on at the car, it is put on within a couple of feet of the actual track and taken of immediatly at the end of the track. Why not contact Trackwest and see if you can still join for this season, it doesn't take dogs long to learn, Jenna may have been in tomorrows trail if she hadn't come into heat. They might even let you join them tomorrow following a few tracks to see if you are interested. I can't wait to get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozjen Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 theres a place up my way that does it called Rons Riding Ranch... No idea how good they are or anything Think he closed down Rach, although he hung out longer than the rest. Use to love going horse riding when I could afford to although I never liked my body the next day after being on a horse for a long riding session .

ST we should do some tracks Are you doing the Royal? Want to bench togther?
