Very Nice Matt, we knew the two of you were a very good team when we watched you at the Jamboree. You had some other nice dogs as well.
Congratulations,

Yes, nice job by Stan and Elvis on the blinds.

The judges set up a fun and challenging senior test with savvy consideration to the cold conditions.

The chase is the important thing. Bringing it back is NOT important...

I think it would be a terrible mistake to deviate from the ecollar approach that Hillmann teaches in the Puppy DVD. Note -- this applies to every command except force fetch. For force fetch, you...

Richard,

I echo this question.

There is a tremendous amount of information and guidance about your (OP) question in Hillmann's Puppy DVD. The answers are there ... even for puppies that are more "hard...

Happy Birthday Tito! You deserve a big hug. And your Mom should treat you to the Jamboree, there will be birds, if it works in her schedule. We need a CH reddish-gold dog in our picture.:p
