Evening training in the sun with the gang .
12 months old doing great. Starting to get the distance with max now . Getting the distance and having control is a big difference to having the distance and not being able to handle him . Being very cautious on going at Max’s pace and recognising what he needs next .

Update on max
8 months old and introducing some distance and memories .
Reducing the amount of marks with him . Reason why is he’s building a habit of marking the throwing hand and not what’s out in front . Early stages but you can already see it working.
Making these small adjustments not being lazy not doing to little or to much makes a big difference in the pups training .

Vehicle training coming on well:
The idea is we’re not pushing him or any pressure . Just gentle persuasion.still want him to be a puppy and have fun we’re just controlling it in certain scenarios. Doing this kind of training, strictly obedience and behavioural work will help so much more in his future training.

Sharpening up those straight lines
Most of the time you’ll send your 4 legged friend and they’ll follow any natural path ( walkway,deer path , motorway ) instead of following the line you’ve sent them on . Can se in iv only sent roo once she’s looking down my line . Also to note this isn’t the first time she’s done it it’s taken some time and still not perfect
@sportingsaint marker dummys are my favourite great bit of kit

Perfecting delivery :
Very common problem we come across is delivery . Can happen at anytime in a digs training could be 5 years old been brilliant then all of a sudden start spitting .
Ruby after her recent season decided to do this 🤦
Was quite bad she just folded soon as we praised her and spat where ever we spoke to her . After a couple training sessions and a few different drills she’s back .

Might not look like a lot but a steady viz is a happy viz .
Ginnys parents have gone back put the hard work in and followed all the instructions and drills.
