TaiKO was training in France not too long ago - now we have him training in the desert in the US.

We take cardiovascular workouts seriously. Our dogs get long distance and interval training.

(For fun I’ve been teaching Nova to find my phone)
I’ve been playing scent games with Nova. She comes from a strong line of scent work. This is non standard “training” just for fun as a plus it’s quite handy for me. Here’s some tips. Don’t make eye contact to lead the pup on, nor move towards where the thing you want found - follow and try to keep up! Praise immediately. Gradually make the seek harder, the wait longer and objects more diverse, or have your pup retrieve objects (fun scent games with name/smell recognition) - Our Dutchies are versatile.
