Put Blazes holter on today. I always shave the area but only so the probs Sri k better. Don’t have a holter jacket which I am sure would be nice and much easier. But just use vet wrap and then put his gooby fleece sweater over it.

I am not a Dr. But I did sleep at a holiday inn express last night. Looks like 5-6 but I don’t really know how to tell so that bud a guess.

When I say “Are you ready to work” this is the attention I want, can’t get it if your dog doesn’t think fun stuff is going to happen.

I just talked to Alyssa, they are the only Doberman at nationals and he is the only one to get his level 2. Hopefully he gets the 3 this time.

4.5 months is too young to be correcting your dog other than a neck scruff or leash pressure on a flat collar. This is the time to build your importance in the relationship bond and become the most fun and interesting thing your puppy could want. Loose leash walking and fussing can be started...

Don’t really know many dogs in PSA. Not many Dobermans at PSA 3 thinking just Alyssa’s dog but there might be some doing 1’s or 2’s.

Sorry, j have been prepping for Blazes FH track, we are competing tomorrow. I have also had a huge amount of new people taking my classes so haven’t had much time. We also just had our fall IGP trial A few weeks ago. She looks really good in the videos from what i see. Nice to have someone...

Is he crate trained? If not I would start there, being older it might be hard at first but it will teach him to settle down and keep him safe, especially if he is having separation anxiety. And also as said by others feeding twice a day at specific times, if he doesn’t eat within 10-15 minutes...

I always train on a prong collar first then pair that with the e collar so the dog understands the correction. Otherwise you can cause other problems if they don’t understand the correction.

It isn’t about teaching to bite a sleeve or suit or even hidden sleeve. It all has to do with breeding and genetics. Most trainers that work dogs can tell. It is easy to see the difference between a trained sport dog and a true working dog.

Teach leash pressure, teaching the dog to give to pressure vs. fight against it. I typically start this very early as a puppy. But many people in my class learn to teach this when the dog is 6 months or older. Here is a great explanation from Micheal Ellis

I know Laural and had a granddaughter to her site Solomon sone years ago. Laural is great, very nice person.

Congratulations, yea I hate the new sit/down stay exercise on leash and sometimes the dogs being back to back. It was better off leash from across the ring. After all it is an obedience competition, it’s not supposed to be easy. All the sports seem to keep making things easier. Good luck keep...

1 year Rabies shot as a puppy then we do every 3 years after 1 year old

Sounds like a fear bite but why was the dog allowed to go after tech when she was walking away. When the dog lacks confidence it’s owner must be a strong leader to help teach the dog.

Unfortunately no, she absorbed the puppies then got piometria. Last I heard she was in meds and had been cleaned out and is expected to recover.

If the situation doesn’t warrant protectiveness, the dog should continue its walk with you without giving notice to other people or pets. Dogs that show sone form of suspiciousness to these things are most likely unsure of the situation and showing some fear or nerve issues. You can build...

Blaze’s feet are tight but Donau slightly running and jumping. Working breed should not be splayed

Never heard an 8 week Doberman puppy be called a spider. 😂 At 8 weeks they are typically all chubby Differing in size. Size means nothing at that age they will all mature and grow differently depending on food, environment, how they are worked ect as they mature.
