Elise+Hudson Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Thanks, unfortunately do not have a club nearby that does traditional obedience, more companion dog training which I have been doing with Hudson. :) Will do some youtube searches and have a look!

I've replayed it and can't find any fault - what have I missed i wonder if the sit at the present was a bit crooked or the heel up was a bit off-hard to tell at the angle of the filming. Bit steep though I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elise+Hudson Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks for the link, have been watching a few on youtube now. Next step is to work out how to train this. He understands the showring now and what is expected there, but need to teach him to heel and work on our stays + recall. Hopefully be able to find some more useful into online. I want to make it different to what we currently do for conformation showing, as I would like to try and do both. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubyStar Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 So I've discovered that windy days and training schnauzers don't mix too well :laugh: Heeling Pippa today against the wind, poor bugger couldn't see me! Her beard was blowing into her eyes I had to keep resetting and heel in the one direction so the beard would stay out of her face!! As funny as it was, it could cause a few trialling issues :laugh: What to do? Tie both sides in piggy tails?! Sue&Waldo, have you had this issue? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hoped that as he grew out of his puppy coat his beard would become a little more wirey if you know what I mean. It hasn't. I now keep his beard shorter. Keeps it cleaner anyway! The main problem I have with the wind is the extra distraction level! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spotted Devil Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'd be more worried about them blowing away in a big gust Sounds like the mini Schnozz peeps are having all the fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Sounds like the mini Schnozz peeps are having all the fun Oh, we are!! Would have one myself in a heartbeat in the future if they were a gundog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue & Waldo Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 No way he will blow away-he is far to stocky and too busy chasing everything :laugh: Now how could you fault such a cutie as this! Even with a short beard. Just had a thought-we should enter him in Movember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megan_ Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Fergus entered Movember last year, but he grew his mohawk instead. Raised over $400 too! Lucy is growing her Mo this year. Back OT, they are great to train. Because Lucy was kept in a puppy farm for the first few years of her life she didn't "learn to learn". However, what she doesn't have in problem solving skills, she makes up in raw enthusiasm. She throws herself into training and tries soooo hard to earn the nomz, she really is fun to watch.

I wasn't particularly fond of the breed before Pippa came on the scene, now I think they are a truly wonderful little breed Yay for Waldo videos!! I'm at work right now but will try sneak a watch sometime through the day, otherwise will watch tonight! I can't wait :D I'll try get some Pippa videos at some point.
