I agree with the above....
Also remember a tired pup is a good pup......

Just remember that must all solicitation calls are done by people who have not a clue about the organization they are calling for. That's all they know is what is on their script. They could not...

Thanks for the in put.... I guess I was doing the right thing just by backing up to simple drill and moving forward again.

I'll let you know how things progress.

Thanks again

Thanks for your in-put.

Just wondering who had or found him?

Glad he is coming back home.

I guess you call it basics. We went through three handed cast moving into single "T" work.

Before I got laid-up she was working single T very well and was ready for double T work.

When...

What I did do when this happened was sit the dog and placed her back to the original place of casting. I then backed up and recast. Being up closer did make a differance. But as distance in creased,...

Anyone??????

I was in an accident and had a few months being laid-up and so did my dog. Now that we started up again working "T" drills for casting, she has started to loop out on the over cast. What I mean by...

From every mountain side.....

From sea to shining sea.....


Let the news be heard.... Bin Landen is dead.

I chose to use "come" to call my dog because I thought "here" sounded to much like "heel".
But I have been told "here" carries better and is definitely more widely used.
But what do I really know,...

Tri-Tronics......

I thought Fred picked them up already.. Or was that just a visit?

Congrats! We just got our this weekend....
Good feeling... Huh?

Thanks everyone....

Mike, I appreciate your help and encouragement.

Went to Buckeye Retriever Club AKC Hunt Test this weekend and got my 1st title on my first retriever. I got a a little nervous on the water part but got through it fine. The second mark was sorta...

Thanks to all who have replied to my questions. I believe, I know what I have to do now.
Thanks Again.

I think I know what your saying.... what your saying is that I need to have more distractions and re-enforce "sit". Right?
But what is "rolling on line"?

I went to a local club training day over the weekend. I can say by having my dog in a Hunt Test type of atmosphere and being able to correct her made a world of change on how she handled. She went...

I was told you want to train your dog for water fowl first to train the eyes, then upland.
You don't want your dog to miss a flying duck because it's nose is pinned to the ground.

Just saying...

I have had my Droid for about 8 months now
No complaints other then having to use online instructions. But it did have a start up booklet.
Fast browser, voice search is really cool and time saving...

I haven't seen a video of myself at line with my dog but my buddy always comments on how laid back I am. (not over reacting, not yelling at my dog, just being patient.) But a video would be a good...

Thanks! Those are good links with a lot of good info.

I train most everyday and have no problems putting in the time to do things right. The problem is I need the most training......

What is adequately??? I can sit my dog and she will stay there till I release her (15,20,30 min.) I can throw bumper and she sits there. I can throw birds and she sits there.

I am not trying to be...

I don't believe my statement is not completely false. My dog does fine in training and field. As stated before I train mostly alone. We have field hunted for geese with no issues of moving. It's not...
