Hi all

I am living in Luxembourg and I am running a trainingcenter for conservation dogs in Luxembourg. 4 Lagottos are living with me, all busy as conservation dogs. I would just like to follow the course maybe without training a dog because I found the subject quite interesting and could even be of use in the conservation work, so I will do the training at my pace! Looking forward to get more input, Jacqueline

Hello All, 

My name is Byrd and Raina is my 21 month old GSD.  We live in Bedford County, Virginia.  I am strictly a hobbyist trying to glean whatever I can wherever I can find it.  Armin and Tazzie have been working with us for the past 15 months as Raina and myself are attempting to learn Schutzhund. 

We look forward to learning Laser Directionals.  

Simon & Storm

Hi

Storm and I are based in Scotland, I own and run K9 Manhunt & Scentwork Scotland, specialise in Nosework, but also do obedience training too.

Storm is a 3 year old Mali, which I rescued at 4 months. He’s one of a mixed pack of 4, GSP and 2 spaniels.

Looking forward to seeing everyone progress on this course.

Good luck & take care 

Simon


Let's hear from you!

We have started our training today, here sunny Scotland… not, below freezing!! 

Looking forward to the course and seeing our progress and everyone else.

Cheers Simon

Sometimes we have different ideas on the landmark

I have noticed the last two days when working on introducing new areas and moving back that sometimes Telly and I have a different idea on what exactly the landmark is.  She is picking out landmarks so that is good but when the distance moves back sometimes a relatively close item that did not stick out so much to me is the one she picks.  Usually the item is pretty close in distance to the other (the one I chose) like about 2M.  When she gets close and sees the target she adjusts.  Does not …
