No music, no voiceovers, just some dog teams finding their groove. If you listen to what Iโm telling the handlers โGo go go goโ. We have been teaching the dogs to stick with target track odor and donโt leave it no matter what, this means no blocking or stopping, just go where the dog takes you. This is key. These handlers are starting to see the fruits of their labor. I wish I could post the full tracks of all 12 dogs cuz they all killed it. My new Patreon will be coming on line very soon.
City handler learning the way of woods and fencing crossings on tracks.
Quality not quantity. Learning how to juggle equipment. Training where we work.
Sunday morning coming down. Pre-church coffee and reflection. Hope yall have a great day.
Love love love our new house and property. We have been on the road so much we havenโt been home for a snow, now we have and OMGโฆ..beautiful!!! Thank you God for all that you have given us.
Opposition reflex + Electronic communication + Operant conditioning = Strong dedication to target odor.
Also note the clarity of task when the toy is missed and isnโt available to him anymore. He returns immediately to task.
During this portion of training (Final response) I donโt care about any hunting behavior.
Susan killing it. Her agency is going to be very happy with her I think.
Intense searching leading to source. This young dog will go to his new handler at the beginning of the year where he will begin his Patrol dog handler school. He is looking great.

Ending the first week of this teams Patrol dog school with rainy and very contaminated track. He is slowly learning how to manage his energy allowing him to find his advantage.
