Not every 2 dogs are same!
Not sure why my last post didn't post correctly... Mods please delete that post. What I wanted to say was: Good on you for abandoning what didn't work and finding something that did. Too many folks hold onto tradition too tightly instead of finding a solution to the problem. Sometimes you gotta think outside the box (or in this case on top of it lol).

Crackerd was on track with what I wanted to say lol. Technical difficulties.

The confusing bit is that there were two Col. Badcock dog trainers. G.H. and G.M. I don't know which of them wrote the book, about a hundred years ago, and had a chapter explaining how to use squares of canvas for the same thing. He wouldn't get much exposure nowadays as he also had a chapter on how to whip a dog properly.

Goldarnit - I was about to take out a patent on it and call it ' stump training'. Lol.
There's a rabbit dummy in the shadow of the tree behind photogenic dog. You can't fail to notice if she's done the cocker creep!

Place training is very common in Mondioring training et al.
The reason a dog has so many friends is because he wags his tail more than his tongue!
