In this video we have Steel off leash some. His overall response to me is getting better every day. You’ll notice he sits faster, when he should, and is off leash but we still have a short leash on him to use when need be.

A little trouble sitting but that’s okay. We were in farm and fleet for about 45 minutes. We people watched and worked on heeling and sitting the whole time. Very proud of Steel!

So everything is new for Steel here. He does pretty good for the most part but distractions make listening difficult ( not just for Steel but every dog ) Carts being pushed around, the intercom going off, the hustle and bustle of people, other dogs, the list goes on. I didn’t let anyone pet steel…   Continue

Steel going to farm and fleet for some training and then a picture of him tired on the way home! Lol

No Leash! Steel is completely loose and free! You’ll notice even with his big surroundings he still wants to be next to me, and is trotting over to me when I say “come” now- great job buddy!

Not much here just talking about how we’ve practiced and little things like taking the collars on and off, and how he has developed patience and being okay with have my hands on him!

In this video I talk about the importance of how the e collar is used, the different levels of it , and how we can expect Steel to respond to it. And what our goals are.

Steel in the process of learning that when he’s told to come, it’s not an option. So Using the collar and leash to get him to come to us!

Talking about the importance of having Steel be 110% on the same page us before we start moving to off leash

Yuma doing a great job at her upland work- makes it look easy!

Yuma is making a great started upland dog. She knows how to use her nose, quarters naturally, great with the gun, marks well, retrieves, and delivers to hand! She has a great nose and a steady, busy motor! We couldn’t ask for anymore

So this antler was laying next to the trail, Yuma smelled it and nosed it but didn’t pick it up, it must have fallen off quite awhile ago and didn’t have a lot of natural scent on it- I picked it up and tossed it for her and then she went and used her nose…   Continue
