This was another great training day. Lots of good dogs and the weather was great.
I rechecked Izzy and she is still snake trained after all these years.
Somebody left a chair behind. If you left it here let me know I put it inside the building.
Thank you everyone.

Thank you both for what you did, I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I was glad to see Cooner didn't act a fool in a strange situation. Aside from his apparent disdain for goats. LOL.

Great training session with Wayne, and well organizes by Stinkbelly. It didn't take Tara long to learn these guys are bad news. Common get it... Gotcha!

Wayne, are you up for a challenge? I know you've seen a pic of my foster failure. If I brought him out, I'd aim to show up last, as he's got some aggression issues towards dogs he doesnt know. He's not great with strangers, but will generally submit to an Alpha type. He spends very little time on a leash, mostly because you can't hardly find him more than 10 feet from me at any given time, but he does mind when he's on one. I'd just be concerned about his reaction when he receives the training and I'm not the one on the other end of the rope. He's a great dog with me and mine, but just doesn't know what to do with himself around a lot of activity. I'd like to have him trained, but if you'd rather not take the chance, I understand. Years ago I came out to your place in a yellow FJ Cruiser with my dogs Bacchus and Shadow. Sadly, Bach is no longer with us, but I'd like to run Shadow through a refresher and see if he needs a reminder. Here's my fosturd. He's a big boy, and could prove to be a hand full. Totally up to you, no hard feelings. Old shotgun Willie's sidekick did very well. HE was a very quick students that is for sure. After the training he was very vocal, growling and barking at the snake, but he kept a huge distance between them. Thank you Shotgun Willie for coming out. Thank you to all my clients. Oh so far as aggressive dogs. This could be good information for people that don't know. Keep the dog well enough away from anyone on the first meeting. Turn you back to the dog and just shake the owner's hand. This has worked dozens upon dozens of times for me. I would put Shotgun W's dog in a fear based aggression category. AS soon as we shook hands, his eyes were off of me and looking everywhere but me for the next threat. He never gave me a lick of trouble. Now the there is a proprietary trick as to how to be close to a fear based aggression dog while juicing him with electricity. The threat for a mauling is absolutely real. You just got to be slightly smarter and faster than the dog

We kept trying to test her to see if she got it, when all the while that first shot did it. I didn't see that first shot as optimal. Sometimes timing on my part can be off. Apparently it wasn't off as she got it down.

Thank you everyone. I am a complete moron for not thinking about filing Izzy's performance a decade after being trained. As soon as she got the first of the three senses, she locked up and went right back the other way. She was 10 yards from the snake. I am impressed with her.

You just got to be slightly smarter and faster than the dog Thanks again Wayne. On the one hand I'm glad I got there after the other dogs had gone, on the other I hate that I kept you and the missus later than you had planned. I hope she got to feeling better. Thanks for taking the time with him. Every experience like this helps to work his history out of him, and make him a better dog.

I got into this business because I felt like the trainer teaching my dog ripped me off. If ever I get to where I don't appreciate a client, its time to pack it in. I knew you had driven a long way. My bride is good, thank you for asking.

Wayne, thanks for putting my Pudelpointer Cricket through your clinic. I enjoyed watching the process and seeing Cricket immediately hip to the lesson at hand. Well done!
