Ok steadily in the woah breaking process. Have a few questions after some thorough reading on this process.

She is holding on the barrel nicely i can walk around her in a full circle and even disappear behind a tree for a few seconds. Walk backwards directly in front of her to 20 yards and she will hold and not sit.

Here are my questions.

A.) I should only say woah once, correct? I want her to be conditioned to respond to a single solitary command and not constant commands.

B.) At what point to i introduce a pigeon or quail tied to a pole so she wont break?

C.) Insert sound advice here_______.

Thank you all.

She should be ready for live birds in 6 weeks or so. Go from the barrel to heel and whoa. Introduce the e-collar. Command only once. Never give a command that you can't enforce.
