maybe we should break down what we mean by training.. eg

I expect my dogs to come back first call, be fab round other dogs and live stock, sit/stay on command and that sort of stuff. To me thats just every day dog stuff.
training for me would be obed or similar
clicker training
Sorry I havent explained that well
I agreed with all the first part of what you said, but then i teach most of the first stuff with clicker training....so that's starts straight away with me. The only things i don't train with clicker training is being fab with other dogs of course! Like you this wass one of the most important things to start early with Tonks.

lol I know what you mean.. As said I didnt really explain it well.. I start my pups at 8 weeks with the clicker, so see them as mini training sessions, even if Im only asking for a dog to look me in the eyes with the clicker,.
