Four years ago today we picked up a little GSD/Husky mix and what a journey that turned out to be. Pictures are on the way home and his favourite spot under my feet which he very quickly adopted as his spot. Can’t believe our dish washer monster/turd monkey has been with us that long

On our morning walk before the day starts, working for their breakfast has been a game changer, enjoyable walks they can do anywhere anytime is all they ever strived for in the beginning. Now we have that it’s time to push further, both dogs have different drives but agility is high on the wish list for both of them.

So we were practicing down stays off leash in a field we use often, it has baseball fences as a stop gap in case he sees something interesting and doesn’t stop though for the last month or so he recalls fine even without using the e collar at all. Just after I took these pictures he took off flat out ran round a fence to a guy and his dog a long long way off, whom the guy was trying to get his own dog back. I didnt hit the e collar button because the other dog was coming ready or not so thought let’s see what happens as they were both looking good with each other. Speaking to the guy while they played he said mine ran off way back and I was blowing into the whistle frantically trying to get him back, when it dawned on me it was a simple whistle mine had responded to so now I’ve ordered 2 types and will see how it goes. Sometimes the old simple things are best it seems. I guess it’s not selective like the e collar but every string to your bow helps I hope so anyway. And yes we will be working more on recall after that.

Banes 4th birthday, time has flown and we’ve come such a long way since that timid scared little pup came home with us, kind of scary with the grey on his muzzle appearing on how fast time is marching on, but I know we are still really only starting our journey and there’s plenty more in the tank for us. Bacon and cheese sausage and a big doggy biscuit made his night, Molly got a share and they are now tucked up on the sofa for the evening.

Everywhere I go I’ll be watching you a line from a song the Police did way back when but it’s so applicable to dogs particularly GSDs but I guess every dog, so why not use it to your advantage dogs imprint on their owners so if you have a dog like that take them everywhere and do everything you can with them but have rules for it and turn every good behaviour to your advantage it works real world training is the best way
