Yet another blog by me, sorry!
I've been on enough courses that I need to get going on my training services, so here's me practising teaching 'Stay' or perhaps better titled - Settle.
This is Scamp's second attempt. As you can see, straining to get to the munchies to start with, then realises he can get all he ever wanted just by settling back and relaxing. This would be extended to a much longer settle over time. In India this was made much easier by putting the trainer in the midday sun, and the dog in a patch of shade!
Fred learnt his Stay a different way, so he's not so 'dramatic' and of course Beauty, being a Greyhound, has a natural Settle! Hopefully I can 'make use' of all three as I train.
I firmly believe my dogs need to be perfect at something before I begin to teach others!
