What's Going On in This Video?
Jason is showing the beginning of the journey to teach your dog to jump over different types of fences with the up-skill of sending from distance.
He is training the dogs to jump through a circular hurdle at the front not by running round and picking a point. Gradually increasing the distance and adding more jumps, aiming for a sequence of three. ๐โโ๏ธ๐พ
Jason is showing Alice how to teach a reliable recall to Moose ๐, even with distractions, through a structured, engaging, and positive up-skilling method.

Mastering the Stop Whistle! ๐พ
Adrian is building on those previous taught basic drills and 3-dummy memories to teach MaryLou to respond to the stop whistle and take a left hand command.
He uses the corner of the stone wall and right hand side as a natural barrier to ensure MaryLou is guided and aided in her responses to Adrian's commands. ๐ฌ

Jason is focusing on building straight lines with Finn, his three-year-old Labrador. He uses a stick as a focal point, with several dummies around it. He moves around the stick in a circle, sending Finn from different points and various distances.
Jason explains the importance of working on different terrains. Hills, for example, can pull a dog off course, so training on undulating ground helps the dog learn to stay on the line. Consistent training on various terrains builds the dogโs experience and confidence.
Remember, drill, drill, drill, drill makes you brill!

This training drill is great for those struggling with stop whistle.
Adrian is using memories to send MaryLou back to a spot, in a corner, before stopping her and casting her right for a retrieve.

It's a windy day but Jason is practicing this advanced training drill with 3 year old Finn. Jason is assuming your dog knows basic commands like left, right, back, and the stop and hunt whistles. He is focusing on changing angles by using the corner of the field as the place to head to, in the first instance.
He sets up blinds at various angles, to teach Finn to adjust to different directions. The drill is to help Finn understand and maintain angles without relying on the usual 90-degree hedges or fences.

Adrian is introducing Rab to water for the first time. He explains that the dummy needs to be in shallow water to start with, getting deeper as the dogโs confidence grows.
It is not all plain sailing, so Adrian shows how he uses another experienced dog as a positive example, for Rab. This technique can help with reluctant swimmers.
To conclude Adrian talks about what to do if your dog is shaking and dropping the dummy when leaving water.

Caroline & Mickey Flynn are the winners!
She only went and did it. Caroline Slater (Adrian wife) won the Two Day Open Retriever Test At Goodwoof, over the weekend. ๐๐ป๐ฅณ๐พ
Thatโs looks like 5 fences, 10 jumps in the run off!
Well done and congratulations Caroline & Mickey Flynn.
This drill is the building block for teaching blind retrieves to MaryLou. Learning Run-Pick-Return in a straight line.
Whilst the training exercise mimics a trial scenario where a judge might direct a handler to send their dog for a retrieve, it also applies to picking up in the shooting field and being directed to a bird by a keeper.
