Training
The Big Goose
We had an awesome training day! From a previous post Too Short!, I had mentioned Cheyenne was not bringing the bird in all the way, making her sit and watch everyone else get to retrieve for the past couple of weeks did the trick; she brought the birds back at least within two feet of [...]
Too Short!
Training was great as usual last night. There were seven dogs running, one of which was Cheyenne or should I call her “Too Short”! She picks the bird up great but keeps coming in too short. So last night since she didn’t get the bird all the way back to me I didn’t let her do [...]
Get Your Bird!
Had fun training tonight, although Cheyenne was having an off night again, bringing the bird half way and then leaving it, I’d yell out to her you forgot your bird then she would spin around like oh yea I did have a bird in my mouth a second ago. Funny when she does that she [...]

Teaching Hold
Cheyenne doesn’t really like to retrieve bumpers (she’s a duck kind of gal), so I learned from a training CD Michelle & Dave over at Dusty Rose K-9 Trainers loaned me that you can try a paint roller instead to teach hold. She does pretty good with this and she has even started following me around [...]
More Training
We did some training Tuesday and although it had been a couple weeks since the last session all in all Cheyenne did pretty good on the second and third birds after a little hold reminder on the first bird. This girl does like the birds!
