Sorry AM have been a busy gal, but have seen your vids now
and have took some good tips from them will have to try them out
Thanks and they werent embaressing, I have seen more embaressing ones of you
You looked great in them
and I wouldnt worry about that as im going to see you for myself anyway
Hi Lollippy
Yes Amts advice is always good but its nice to have other people join in and give advice too, and it great to see how different people train there dogs so im happy that you haved joined in.
Yes that sounds like a good idea with the dummy, he brings it to me fine its just he drops it, so that might work and I didnt think of that so will give that ago
Regarding the treats I havent used them again, think its best that i stop using them for the time being. I get what your saying but I feel that by me carrying on using them will only make it harder later on as he will keep dropping the dummy when he gets to me and then I give him a treat for doing this and therefore reinforcing actions I dont want, so when i try and tell him not to drop it, he wont understand as that is what he has been rewarded for
hope that makes sense?.....but they do work im not saying they dont he brings the dummy back to me and sits to get the treat so his attention is focused, but shouldnt his attention be focused on me and not the treat?
Thanks for the advice always welcome
