Kavik Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Here is a video of some drive work I was doing with Kaos yesterday. I am still new to drive work, so criticism and comments welcome! The sound is out of synch in the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavik Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 That's weird - was working earlier? If it is still not working tomorrow, I will try uploading it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Link is working for me now. My computer was off for a while, but that shouldn't affect it should it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidoney Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Worked for me. Not an expert at this kind of work but he's keen, isn't he? What does "free" mean? Also, timing of cue sit? IMO, should predict behaviour - opens a window for him to be able to earn the toy. But someone with more experience with this kind of work would be able to better comment.

Kavik Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 He is certainly keen but this is at home where he is comfortable, not as good when out and about. Free is his release command - I am using it when he can get the toy after the sit. I know with Steve's method he just drops it but I am afraid of hitting him on the nose The sound is out of synch - I was trying to raise the toy and give sit command at the same time.

NorthernStarPits Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) Nice Vid kavik, ( it worked for me now ) , i do a similar thing with my dogs giving the commands while using a flirt pole instead of a tug toy.

MonElite Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Nice Kavik. I think the videos get out os sync when the resolution is too high. Try Dr Dvix (free from the net) to reduce the size of the file before you upload it, or try the smallest resolution on your camera. I do it in Dr Dvix.

Lablover Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I think you are off to a good start, with a nice dog......but a couple of suggestions which have worked for me. (1) Some say technique, is not that important, but...........I would initially spin in a circle. I find the motivator moves smoother. (2) I would have a start word. Your free was inconsistent. (3) I would stroke the dog, and hold the string shorter. (4) The jumping before the reward would not be acceptable. Timing is important. (5) I would not ask for any obedience until working on the above. Hope you do not mind the above suggestions, I have more!!!!! but to shy to add.

Kavik Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Suggestions are good! This is the first dog I have tried this with, so I have a lot to learn still! I will try the circle work again, I tried before but had a hard time getting it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesomil Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Hope you do not mind the above suggestions, I have more!!!!! but to shy to add. LL, I think you should add more suggestions!! We all love reading them and learning. Great having a video Kavik. Its good to actually see what you are talking about rather than just describing it and its good reading peoples suggestions regarding it. I wish i knew how to do the video thing.

leopuppy04 Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I agree! LL - more suggestions! Kaos is eager and boy is that out of synch !!!! After LL comments I cant' think of any more to add - stroking is really good and using a word such as 'get it' for example would help too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesomil Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I know with Steve's method he just drops it but I am afraid of hitting him on the nose What is the benefit of dropping the toy over keeping hold of the toy and playing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flames_Daddy Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Awesome Video Kavik. And nice drive too! I think youtube is getting so hammered these days that timeouts are getting more and more common. A victim of its own popularity. When I upload I convert from the native AVI of my Canon Ixus to MP4 (using NERO digital) and then uploading to youtube. Works well and sounds seems to be synched too. Ensure you have the optimum codecs installed. It helps if the latest FPS shooter is NOT running on your PC when you are re-encoding or uploading however!! Anyone for a "Fear" Session!!??? Lock n Load! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sas Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 From the Method I was taught we had a start word so that word is what gets the dog into drive further down the track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
