Hey Chris, Michelle came to visit me in Syracuse at a dog show yesterday and broucht me a cd of your yahoo stuff for me to watch (since I have dial-up and am unable to watch alot of the videos you link
) and I JUST finished watching it.
Awesome! Absolutely outstanding! Fantastic obedience! I have seen quite a few protection dogs work (schutzhund) and been fortunate enough to watch police dogs train, and work (on the street). And although I dont consider myself that experienced in bitework, and I havent seen it all... that is without a doubt the BEST I have ever seen!
I think Vegas looks kind-of like your brindle and white dog (I forgot his name)
.
I would love to come up someday, but all of my spare $ goes to trial entries these days (havent been on a vacation in several years). But if you let me, I would love to pick your brain. Do you do train-by-phone or how about by video... email... message board... or...
.
I plan on using some of your distraction training proof ideas soon though. Really cool... serious pressure proofing stuff.
You were right. I DO "get it".
I cant wait to meet you at Bull-ympics.
Maybe I could have you at the company I work at for a seminar. We have all kinds of seminars all of the time. Do you do that?
