nice 1

Some good footage, that King dog is a big bastid!

Was nobody baiting their dogs? (I didn't watch all the videos)

luring can be used at any time harry depending on the dog, the main thing is that the dog knows what its doing before we ask of anything. , most dogs their are mad about their owners and the minute the owner walks off "POW" some don't need anything else their owner seems to work for them as a lure. We also had some dogs that have the technique and a lure can be used on them to give that extra bit of encouragement, again it depends on the dog and how he works best. For starting off we want to show the dogs what we want from them first because some tend to try back up and make a dive for it we all know that's not good. What were doing in the videos is getting the dogs used to a weight behind them and leaning into the harness with out allowing them to back up, if you notice the dogs cant back up but can go forward and it just takes a few seconds for them to cop this, teaching them the technique is mainly what we'll be doing before we up the game, mind you some new comers took to it like pro's but still we want to walk before we run.

great pics looks a nice place & some lovely dogs.
