Training - Experiences, Challenges, and Mindsets

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.

 

I STARTED A NEW CGC COLLAGE, BECAUSE WHEN I ADDED JACK DOODLE AND JAKE THE PICTURES BECAME TOO SMALL TO REALLY SEE....SO NOW WE HAVE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR MORE CGC GRADS!!!!!

Congratulations HATTIE!!!!!

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've looked through it and see some areas where I can improve. Tara still jumps on the two male neighbors that seem to be doodle candy. I'm just not sure there is a reward that I can give her that would be better, in her opinion, than their attention.

Thanks Karen. Will study this in depth.

Congrats to Lily Grace and mom!!! I love the photo!!

Comment by Sue & Lily Grace on December 8, 2013 at 5:51pm
Thank you all. Although I have had had dogs throughout most of my adult life Lily Grace is the first dog that had more than basic trainning. She is smart and responsive. I am hoping as a therapy dog she can bring others the happiness she brings me.

Sue, I'm so happy for you and Lily Grace!  I know you really wanted this...you're well on your way to a Therapy designation.....and I think you two will make a fabulous team.  I need to update our CGC board.
