You start this course by studying your puppy. What characteristics does your puppy have that you wish to develop with focus on what you want do with your dog when its older?
What is important to do or not in your everyday life with your puppy? Are there things that you let the puppy do that could work against what you want to do later on with your dog? What does it mean to be a good leader to your do
There are lots of ways to reward your dog. But why is it clever to have many different rewards? And how can you develop them?
There are many playful exercisesto do for a puppy when it comes to retrieving. In this lesson we take a look at delivery to hand, holding with a firm grip and letting go on cue. We also introduce the puppy to game.
Not least with a dog that loves to work it is easy to train to much – both you and the puppy seem to have so much fun. But watch out! In a short while you might have a stressed dog that makes noise and have too high expectations. Teaching the dog on and off is at least as important as teaching him to retrieve, stop, be directed and so on.
Self-control is of the utmost importance for hunting and trials. This lesson contains playful foundations for self-control.
Even the foundations for stopping at a distance (and for a spaniel also flushing) can be taught with playful exercises. Stop-training is so much fun!
Can you really train directions with a puppy? Yes! Short, fun training sessions where the puppy learns that it pays off to run where you point is what this lesson is about.
In this lesson you get some tips, both for spaniels and retrievers, how to train the dog to hunt. A dog that is bred to hunt can of course hunt by him-self – the trick is to teach him to do it on cue, together with you. 😉
What happens when your puppy sees water for the first time? After a first hesitation he might be almost crazy? Many puppies need to learn to take it easy around water. Others need some courage to dare start swimming. In this lesson there are exercises for both.
