Great information. I like the methods and attitude of the session. I primarily train pointing dogs, but there is a lot of good stuff to carry over to general dog training.
Hey thanks for your awsome videos, i have a small question for you i am trying to teach my 5 month old golden retriever puppy to point for quail hunting and till now 10 lessons and no luck 😢 she just want to run streight to the quail and then i just stop after i see that she's totally tired. is it even possible that they learn pointing? Should i keep trying ?
Hey man, do you “play” with the dogs after the training sessions or do you use these sessions as “play” time? I just got a chocolate lab we’ve had her for about a month and she is 4 months old now so asking on her behalf! She does great during training but still has a lot of energy after so that’s why I was wondering
hey thanks for asking. 4 months old is still a baby so this is kinda different. At that age, everything should be fun and exciting for the dog. In general, the retrieving should be fun and rewarding for the dog but every dog is different. Some dogs need more fun bumpers and excitement and maybe a tennis ball before to hype them up and others don't. Once you learn what your dog needs, you'll be good. As for the "lots of energy" part, retrieving and burning energy to tire them out should be different things. You'd want to finish the retrieving/training lesson with them wanting more, not being exhausted and tired of it... that's how you build drive, confidence and excitement. sorry for the longwinded answer, it's tough to fully explain all sorts of things via youtube comment. check out our patreon.com/loneduckoutfitters and we can help more!
Hey my dog does great at being steady with the bumper but has problems during the live hunt of wanted to break or moving around a lot when someone throws the gun up what can I do to stop this?
Just did some deep dive into my pups parents and grandparents and there is a lot of pointing labs. The father is 4xGMPR. Would you recommend not focusing so much on the pointing with my plans to hunt test her?
I have a problem lab who breaks every hunt every shot... but in training he never breaks.. whistle sits.. does everything perfect.. but on a hunt he is so amped for the real thing I can't stop him breaking without tieing him down... how can I stop this frustrating behaviour
Could you do a full series on a dog from the beginning to when it’s ready so we can see the whole process?
Great drill to start out!
