ness Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) Tiggy I was naughty and impatient and lured it a few times first and Ptolomy told me off because I didn't let the dog think for itself. I was to quick to jump in and lure the dog rather than wait after having lured it a few times. ETA. The final product http://www.youtube.com/user/ness#p/u/76/Wrck3j4zc28 Kenzie learning - http://www.youtube.com/user/ness#p/u/130/x-4V8GL60mM Not the best example but she was cute anyway .

ness Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Hahah yeah I think she was 16 weeks in that video from memory. I love my ones of her at 12 weeks - very cute. Then they grow big and feral . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 I was wondering do most of you try to come to a stop on your left leg for a halt/drop/stand. I always do for the halt(sit) but sometimes I muck it up for the others but it doesn't seem to bother the dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedazzledx2 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 It doesn't matter what you do but consistancy does matter especially as you go up through the classes. I always stop on my right foot and close with my left for the automatic sit. For the drop I give my hand signal with my right hand simultaneously with my right foot forward and my left leg comes up to meet it.

That's what I do to bedazzled :D but you said it better than me :D , when I said I stop on my left foot I meant close with my left leg like you said.

Her heeling is coming along so nicely... she's improving in leaps and bounds!!! I love my smart little girl!!!!!! I think you should definitely start videoing and uploading to youtube You can tell Lottie naturally just loves to work, and spend time with you We should meet up for a training session once your exams are over! I second this, reaaaaaaally wanna see vids of you guys working! Ok, I took a video of me training this arv - if I manage to get it on here i'll let you know If I do, i'd love comments/tips/help - but be nice, hehe - i'm so new to all of this and we have a LONG way to go, and Lottie is still quite youn (9 months), but I love getting help and lessons that can improve out training!!!!!!! Lottie worked well this arv!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flick_Mac Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Huski - she's watching State of Origin .... instead of studying for our exam tomorrow (I'm not either but at least I'm not watching sports!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) She's a naughty thing Flick... she wasn't supposed to go to training on Monday night either but she did anyway Edited June 16, 2010 by huski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth. Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 She's a naughty thing Flick... she wasn't supposed to go to training on Monday night either but she did anyway And it was soooo worth watching the game tonight - those boys were on FIRE!!! hahaha Anyway, back to the topic - i'm going to have to wait till I get back to Gatton before I upload it (the internet I have here is slow and crap, so I'm not even going to bother trying!!!) - so will have to wait till at least Sat now, hahaha... I might film another round before then and put my best one up I think!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seita Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Well I'm feeling a lot more confident about Ella's UD debut this weekend, she's been doing really well with her seekbacks for the last few weeks and her gloves are pretty reliable now too (unless I give her a bad signal which I have been known to do). I dare say that short of her doing something silly due to her lack of experience she'll do really well and we'll probably only get zeros cos of something stupid that I've done! On other news.... this little guy here looks set to become my next show and competition dog. All going to plan I'll be picking him up this weekend or next!

Flick_Mac Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Huski - we're a bad influence on each other not studying.... but it probably helps that I'm out in Laidley and she's in Brissie.... less opportunity to go to the lake etc! Mack is gorgeous! Good luck with Ella's UD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptolomy Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 And another one just cos he's soo cute! Woo Hoo another baby. How did you choose him Nic - I can't wait to hear more about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corvus Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I love training Erik because he's so easy and you only have to look at him to get him fired up and excited. But Kivi Tarro is very mellow and laid back and he just doesn't get very aroused. He's got his head in the clouds most of the time and has a very low frustration threshold. Erik can do heaps of things I could be proud of, but I think I'm more proud of Kivi because we're in a good place with training where he is happy and more enthusiastic than I ever thought I could get him. It's taken a long time to get him there. Here's a few snippets of a training session earlier in the week. He's not a performance dog, and what he does doesn't look wildly clever or difficult, but just wanted to share 'cause I'm proud as punch of him anyway.
