Tuesday: mornin,are my bird,s outside ever singing to day they woke me up & made me the air is so nice & fresh hope you have a great day & to all others on BK to
Sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full of rye; Four and twenty blackbirds Baked in a pie. When the pie was opened, They all began to sing. Now, wasn't that a dainty dish To set before the King?
The King was in his countinghouse, Counting out his money; The Queen was in the parlor Eating bread and honey. The maid was in the garden, Hanging out the clothes. Along there came a big black bird And snipped off her nose!
OldFartNamesArt: does she know the "watch me" command? I ALWAYS start with that with my dogs before going into any other command....even on trial day..I will say...."Niki,watch me" then when I have her attention I say "foose" and we start heeling
My pom doesn't know the word Down.. she knows Off.. I think she hears more of a bark with the "Off Command" It is so silly cause she will start jumping up on my legs to scold me for leaving her.. and I just say.. "Off" and she stops jumping up..
anastasia: I have a book and several clickers. I started a bit of training with the older pup (6 months old now) and just am getting her used to the clicker. I click once and then offer a treat (as per the book). From what I've read, they use this system on dolphins (with a whistle but same principle). I have a lot to learn.
I tried the first exercise but it didn't work. I think the dog was distracted so I'm trying again later. It was supposed to get the dog to follow it's tail in a circle but maybe I was doing something wrong.
Creepy Old Man: I used it on mine and I use clicker on new dogs I train for others...it really does give the dogs INSTANT feedback.....you can pick up a clicker at Petsmart for a couple bucks...
you can find different things on youtube but I kind of think this one is funny how he trains the lady here,lol...if you have any questions feel free to ask :)
