Oh gosh, starting tracking is awful because of that LOL. Velma seems to be a SUPER fast learner in all phases and we're already standing up after only a few weeks of tracking. She progressed to now tracking with two lines this morning! Trendy has been really good checking each foot step but this morning she had something up her bum and wanted to track fast so she had to be checked at each step like milking a cow.
Yes its our property that has been planted with a clover, alfalfa, flax seed mixture for the chickens (plus weeds since we don't treat) and its worked out wonderfully for tracking at home! If I need to mow I just leave an area for them to be able to track in then mow it the next time.
Really impressive!
You don't know how lucky you are! Dirt, rocks and scattered bunch-grass or weeds is what I've got. I was thinking of getting back into tracking, since it was me who quit, Asha loved it. I'd do it in a heartbeat if someone else would lay the track...
Sometimes its your web browser settings.The tracking worked right away without clicking on anything. But the one with the blind just brings me to Tic tok to install the app.
@Rits are you Soluna?
Try a PVC pipe with a funnel duct taped to the end. Saves your back! Hubby gets to lay track for our club when we have trials because of his size 13 shoes
Yes, Soluna Dobermans is my husband and I
I'm on Tik Tok, Facebook and Instagram, though Instagram not as often.Thanks! Super happy with her and looking forward to the day they eventually trial! Still got a ways to go. I can't wait to see Velma (also a Ripley daughter, diff sire) in another year. She's like Trendy but on another level without some of Trendy's weak areas. We're excited
soooo that means late night watching videos and wishing we were back at club!
They're looking great!
No hackles are up so I'm not sure what you may be seeing? She is really focused though! They've been working hard on that!
Very close! He has a tug toy tucked away in his armpit, that when she does good, he marks with a YES! and opens his arm to release the toy to her! Dropping the leash in the process so she can jump up and get it then run into him for a good tug session or so she can run around with her prize for a little.
Exactly this! He knows what it should look like but definitely needs the guidance, and not from me, haha. Having to make the effort to leave your home and show up to an appointment almost with someone expecting you there really helps to keep one honest and committed to their training. He's been struggling with it over the break
but then I finally manage to motivate him to "just spend 5-10 min" and he always come out of training and is super happy with the bit of progress. I'm like "see!" 
It doesn't take much per day!
