Addy and Hildi, practice/mock CKC TD track. She has her test with Addy this Sunday. 1 flag at the start and one at 25 yards indicating direction of travel ( as per CKC rules for a TD track). Unmarked, unknown, no food drops, 430 yards in length, 4- 90 degree turns and 1-45 degree turn. Glove at the end. 35 minute time delay. 😉👍. My whispered voice is meant for Hildi to review on her own, but without her hearing my coaching along the way behind her. It offers insight and instruction for those curious about tracking.
Just a little something else we do around here...having some tracking fun with the dogs! This is a wilderness track ( sometimes called Man tracking or Mock SAR tracking). Leslie and Skylar are not training for any event or purpose...,they are just enjoying spending the time together and it really helps develop their relationship !
I also teach CKC and AKC tracking for those interested in competition titles.
Recalls in the park with Willow...she has to show everyone how fast she is...all the time!
Shoulder to shoulder greeting of a friendly stranger. And Hildi is correct BTW! Sooo much learning goes on in these classes for both the dog and owner
Another video of clients showing me how their dogs are doing without telling me how they are doing... Huskys at the park for a win!!!
Billy and Brian rocking the obedience obstacle challenge course. He is one smart pup!
The small challenges obstacle course that is part of my intermediate lifestyle obedience course. We apply obedience commands instead of "agility". commands to build the handlers control and the dogs focus.
Who says blind and deaf dogs can't have fun !Look at this senior go!
