I do think if you bring your dog to a place where there are other dogs you should expect dog distractions like reactivity (whether aggression or frustrated greeting or w/e), BIH, really big dogs, really tiny dogs, dogs being handled inappropriately (unfortunately), dogs with different needs, dogs that need space, dogs who are sick (unfortunately), and various dog diseases. You should expect to run into all of those things the second you go into a dog-oriented space.
I understand it is difficult to train for or prepare for some of these things. I also don't think it's an excuse. To me that is just part of being responsible with a dog.
I'm constantly annoyed about how certain types of dog people expect the world to cater to them and how they are so focused on their particular dog-oriented hobby that they don't stop to train their dogs to be appropriate outside of that specific hobby for five fucking minutes.
How big do you expect Mav to get? Both in general and in relation to Marlo?
DO NOT REBLOG BECAUSE THESE PHOTOS AREN’T MINE
Mav’s sire (CH HuntersHeart RedDevil Fantome FDJ TOG SDS-SP CGN MN EC EV EI TNN AGNJ AN SGDC “Boo”) is 45lbs.
Mav’s dam (HuntersHeart Black Betty “BB”) is about 35lbs.
I expect Mav will be closer in size to his dam so I expect him to be between 35-40lbs. To compare, Marlo is almost 70lbs.
The course for tonight! Actually not sure what you call it in English, but in danish it’s called ‘stakit’ when the jumps are aligned next to each other. We haven’t done a lot of “stakit training’ lately, so it was about time.
Faith had a photo shoot with the amazing Craig Hunter Ross! I love how this one turned out ❤️
This is the course I use at my first lesson with the beginners. We always start with training the tunnel, because it's an easy obstacle to teach the basics of how I'd like them to proceed. Then we use backwards shaping. So 1 jump, tunnel. 2 jumps, tunnel and so forth. If I have a hardcore dog, I'll have them use the 'black numbers' at the end of my class.
