Training - Experiences, Challenges, and Mindsets
Information
This group provides a "safe place" for members to share their experiences with training, celebrate "big and little successes" and gain insights as we encounter challenges, to support one another, and to explore how our mindset affects our training.

QUESTIONS REGARDING PUPPY BEHAVIORAL CONCERNS (less than 4 mos of age) are better placed in the Main Forum or the Puppy Madness Groups. Once our Doodles reach the age of four to five months, they are ready to begin their obedience training, and this is the place to share experiences.

So, the Rally people suggested to me that I should enter Maggie in the show that's coming up at the end of August. They have Rally on Friday, so we could actually do that one day. But I'm looking at…Continue

This week Willow has decided that sitting for exam is terrifying. We've practiced. She will sit and let me go over her like a champ. Feet, ears, tail, teeth. No problem. But when the instructor bent…Continue

I have a 12 week old ALD "grand dog" that visits frequently. Oliver is 8 and tolerates the puppy play fine with no issues at all. Ivy on the other hand was a bit stand offish (as she is with all…Continue

Murph had a GREAT training day today. We used a wild and crazy rottweller puppy as the distraction. Murph was doing his "sit/stays" while the puppy was running all around him. He only had one temper tantrum today, and that was when the trainer took his leash and gave me the puppy's leash. Murph didn't want to leave "his Mommy". Big baby.

I've just started noticing how proficient he actually is at manipulation. A few minutes ago, Guinness had the "new antler"...and Murph wanted it. He knows that he can't take it away now or Mom (meanie that I am) takes it away from both of them. So he came up with his own way to get it. He came over to me and started "lovin me up"...kisses, head on lap, the whole deal. So I started petting him right back....when Guinness saw that he dropped the antler and came running to put a stop to all this affection being given to his brother. That's exactly what Murph was waiting for....he dropped me like a "hot potato" and ran and got the antler. Pretty smart.

(Murphy learned somewhere that when moms are naughty and give commands they should be redirected to petting you)
