Lately, Sammy has been out and about trying different dog sports… here she is learning to chase a lure so she can get a lure coursing title (or two)

30/05/2023

So Sammy did a thing tonight…

After 2 months of early morning training sessions 🚴 and a few fun hydro sessions with Canine Hydrotherapy & Wellness, Sammy can now add her Endurance Test title to the end of her name… pending Dogs Qld approval, she is now:

AUST CH OROPOURO SOURDOUGH SAM ET

Massive thanks to the support crew that hung in through my updates tonight 😘

For those wondering… an Endurance Test involves the dog running 20km at 10km/ hour in 3 segments (8km, 6km & 6km) with vet checks in between where their temperature & heart rate need to return to normal in order to proceed & pass. The dog must also do a willingness test before & after the run.

Recall is one of the most important skills you can teach your dog 🥇

This behaviour will help keep your dog safe and also allow you to give your dog more freedom throughout their daily life.

To get started teaching your dog this skill:

👉 1️. Start your training inside.

👉 2. Prepare for your training session outdoor with a long line and plenty of high value rewards.

👉 3. Reward positive behaviour.

👉 4. Increase the level of distraction.

A bit slow on posting results… but a couple of weeks ago, we finally had the opportunity to show Sammy under some Canadian judges & of course our girl didn’t disappoint us coming away with:

3 x Challenge Bitch/ Runner up Best of Breed
3 x Reserve Challenge Bitch
1 x Intermediate in Group

So happy that Sammy came away with wins under both Canadian judges
