Your more than welcome any time you just have to keep it up

aw! I'm useless and have no advice apart from that that Gordon Lover gave you! I was going to say the exact same thing to get her to take it but I missed out!

Glad it's all going better good luck!

Also, J, make sure you always finish your training on a positive note, you said that she only managed to do it a couple of times, if you know that after 3 times, she won't do it, then just do it three times until she seems more confident then try a bit more, but don't ever decide to finish because she seems to have stopped doing it. I'm sure you know that, but I like to think I'm a little bit knowledgable!

He he Lottie

Yes I know about the ending positively Have been told that a lot of times both from our trainer and from AM

We did it again yesterday, and I can tell you.... Luna was already "alert" when I brought the dummy out. She kept wanting to take it and hold it

So I'm a very happy dog mum right now

Just a quick update on oscars progress
Well we started a fresh yesterday, and i have to say it was alot better, he was more alert wanted to get the dummy and generally more 'into' his training, so i was very pleased with him this time he brought the dummy back to me instead of dropping it half way (yay) have to admit it wasnt to my feet, but im not too bothered about that, as long as he is interested in the dummy and is retreiving it back, thats all i want to work on for now, until i feel that he does that spot on, which will take some time, but the more he gets use to all these new things the better he will become - just teaches you not to give up when things dont go to planned, as this time he was alot better
So if anyone wants to add to that please do

:smt038 well done Natasha and Oscar! You're getting there!

Nice to hear from you again! Great to hear from you and that you're doing well!
