Lequita @ training

Some pics from last week.
She's now becoming a beautiful girl. She's still such a baby though.
A late bloomer but I think if I can get her a bit more self-confident she'll be my best worker.

Just her pretty self.



The death trap.



Recall. Kicked gravel in Sue's (trainer) face to get to me



Scenting. She works so beautifully - slow and steady.



Learning to 'spin'. She's right handed (pawed?).

i want her

That is fantastic - well done Theresa! She's just gorgeous.

They do love to work! Scent work was my fav with Jess.

Well done Lequita.....

She's really coming on well now, isn't she? She looks like she enjoys it all as well.

Thanks!
She is coming along nicely. It's just the retrieve I'm struggling with. She also only responds to pure positive training which I sometimes forget. I work my dogs with my voice and the moment you say "uhuh" to her to mark her starting to stray, you can stop as she folds. It's been a big learning curve!

All my dogs love training, one on one time, praise, treats = good times.

She is doing great, beautiful girl

I always used, " jessie, working" (happy tone) if she strayed.
She will get there. How long has she been scent training? Just don't project your frustration onto her. I know this is not you but I have seen many a dog back off because the owner is frustrated their dog hasn't got it. The dog just thinks... when I do this mum/dad arent happy.

She's simply gorgeous

Thanks Lorraine.

I don't get frustrated with my dogs. If they don't understand that's my fault for not 'explaining' correctly.
She just has issues with training at home. I have to put her in the car and drive 20km to get the best out of her. She's strange.
