Shame that dogs' lives change so radically because of us humans, however, I guess he will quickly find a new home as he seems so full of character.

Amber is progressing well her body language was much better she is still a little a loof very much how my weimar bitch can be almost like they are away with the fairies at times.

We are now starting to get a bit of focus?...and slowly introducing the recall, without her actually realising it!

Most boring video ever but i kept it on for the bird shirps while working. :whistle: Haven't kept up to date about the progress but i assume it's a good one if the owner cried seeing it. I just saw someone walk back and forth on a road with a dog heeling. *big yawn* :-D I wish i was good at these things and understood the workings behind it but i don't, i find it impressive to take on dogs with various bad behaviors and fix it in such a short time. Figure the video shows that most part of it is patience and repetition, boring as it sounds.

Most handlers that have issues ,feel exactly the same!
The boring stuff is just too boring!...so they skip it! ;) ..................
Then the wheels fall off!...and they wonder why? :doh:
Then.....they try the end product, which they have seen on a trade fair, or in the field ,or on a polished dvd,by a pro', or the clips of the championships', and think ,,,hey' that looks cool 8-) ... :roll:
Before Mary ray, done any dancing, she had to teach each step? ;) ...Most find the performance amazing?...many cant do the steps :lol:
