Our 2nd session today

Not the best camera angle, but the side camera didn’t work for some reason!!
There’s a couple of dogs in the background, so was quite happy with Storm focus, plus it -3 here today!! So keeping training session very short.

Intro

Hi, I’m Chris and I have a 3 yr old German shepherd. We are a k9 team in Kentucky. My goal is to be the best handler and trainer I can be. Laser directional training has been an interest of mine for a while. I’m very excited to be part of it.

Introduction

Hello! My name is Andrew and I own a few German Shepherds. Located in East Tennessee, I’m here to expand my knowledge & gain a deeper understanding of effectively training working K9’s for tactical and practical operations. Primary dog I will be going through this course with is a 2.5 year old Czech Shepherd named ‘Iron’.
