LisaCC Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I'm moving to Armidale. So still far away from all the excitement! I really liked Armidale when I visited! We were staying in Glen Innes (also very nice) I'm pretty excited, I'd rather move to New Zealand though :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitka Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Most of next year will be focusing on showing but I would like to do Rally O with him so will be doing some training for that, but most of all I want him have fun with his training. Think were pretty limited with a bulldog because they are also really stubborn :laugh: Training and showing will be a new adventure for both of us and I cant wait :D Edited December 1, 2015 by whitka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayreovi Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Don't have many plans this year and none of last years completed due to Jovi having 7-8 months off for puppies ???? Jovi ADM JDM Maybe attempt a retrieving trial My plans aren't big due to raising littermates, they are currently 15 weeks old and just enjoying being puppies at the moment.

Two Best Dogs! Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I hate acronyms ;) so I only have tiny little goals :) - proof recall away from exciting things like dogs, dididog, wallabies and rabbits <- priority - a nice close concentrated heel - to get sit, stand, drop, pivots both ways and back from a distance of 5+ metres - hold items in mouth while moving - stop barking at guests in the house - to get lifetime membership at my obedience class (we will BOTH need to pass advanced) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaseyKay Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 We were at the same agility show last weekend as Podengo and knocked off a couple of goals: Ohutu Gaelic Blues ADX JDX CDX UDX WDX RE aka Gael -Try and get more clear rounds than we did in Agility in 2015 (only 10% of runs were clear). Do less Jumpers A in 2016, as it is too much tricky handling for me and I don't enjoy it. -Keep working towards RAE title, hard when in NZ you need to get 95 in Advanced B and 100 in Excellent B, plus we don't get to a lot of rally shows. Eclaireur du Montier JD RA QC aka Scout -Finish JD title (on 23/25, so only needs 2) -Start working on JDX title (will need another 25 CRC as she is unlikely to get it by winning Jumpers B 3 times)long term goal. -Try and add some more Field Trial CC (with my husband). Ohutu Kepler's Mission RA aka Kep -RE title -Enter Novice obedience? (not sure) -CDX title -Start competing in Jumpers early in year got his first clear round at his first show, and his first ribbon too, a 2nd place. -Start competing in Agility mid year Holmbrook Counting Stars aka Camo -I have done Rally with my last 5 dogs so hope to do Novice with Camo in 2016. -Natural ability test via New Zealand Versatile Hunting Dog Test Association, next one is in April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) My training and trialling time has been significantly reduced the past couple of years and will continue to be so for another year, but I will come play in this thread for fun :) My goals for next year include: Ruby ADX title RM title NRD title And give a restricted retrieving trial a crack just for sh!ts and giggles Millie JDM title RM title Pippa ADX title JDM title CD title RN title Me Hopefully finally graduate uni with my own hard-earned title after my name Pippa gained her CD title this past weekend with her third novice win She also gained her JDM title the weekend before last :) She had her first go at Rally Novice last weekend too, with a nice pass of 99/100. Ruby and Millie each have one RM pass under their belts as well. Really enjoying Rally Masters, it's a nice challenge for the human to remember the signs!

Tassie Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Read about your great weekend with the clever kids, RS. Super well done. Two Rally trials for us in the last coupe of weekends .. Rally Masters is challenging, but fun. Interestingly, at this weekend's trial, it was the Novice/Advance signs in the RM course that tended to trip people up .. I think a lot of us had been working so hard on the Masters signs, we'd forgotten than there are going to be lots of other signs in the course. Happy to say that after a stumbling start to Masters ..one very ordinary Q, and one where I gave up in disgust .. at me, rather than the dog , ROry and I got our act together better on Saturday for a 97 1st place and a 94 2nd place in RM. That felt better .. but we still need work. Back to agility this weekend .. but with nowhere near enough training. Oh well, we shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sporti Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Firstly, learn what all these initials mean! As my pup wont be here for 8 weeks, its a very large but small puppy goal list: Focus - on me Relationship and bond between us Establish pup in our pack of dogs safely Triangle of temptation from day 1 onward Have fun together Toilet training Use training record Socialization/desensitizing to animals; ducks, geese, cows, sheep, grandchildren Crate training, including car traveling in crate to club twice weekly Camping trips Recall Sit Drop Stand Heeling/find the left leg The "out" on command Rear end awareness BH ready @ 6 months lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, she won't want to miss out! I will enter her in the odd games trial we have (had already entered her in the one in 2 weeks time), and keep doing Rally with her :) But as for general agility/jumping, no more trials for her. Have just done my online entries for the WA State agility trial in April, an already noticeable difference in my reduced entry fees minus one dog!! Still running the other 2, though, and that isn't cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how realistic it will be to go for anything else this year due to my schedule, but I may as well aim big and go for ADM and RA ADM will be a massive one, this is the first dog I've had a real chance to try Masters Agility with. Will at least give it a red hot go :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eza Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 As I now know Im getting a pup I want to focus on my training techniques, its been over 10 years since Ive had a puppy. With a few weeks to study up, Im hoping I wont break it Integrate pup into family (eager Mr 4) Complete crate training (breeder starts this) Have fun together Toilet training Socialization/desensitizing to animals; chickens,horses and children are the ones I can find locally Camping trips, hubby is eager for this and has already booked one for October. Recall Sit Drop Stand Train "outside' command Alone time training. I work so I want to encourage play time on his own. Lose lead walking, being he is a bigger dog than Ive previously owned I want to gain his trust walking while hes young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
