“Good Boy”

“Good Boy”
Well ok, firstly to be politically correct I should say “boy or girl”!!!!!

When training your dog it is so important to praise for the behaviour that you want, so the dog is willing to offer that correct behaviour again, and again.

One of the fundamental mistakes I see in show training is wanting the dog to “stand still be gone over move in triangle and up & down then stand again then move to the end of the line” before they get any praise.

Please never do this until your dog can do all of the above perfectly!

You should break your training down to separate activities and only start putting them together once they are mastered. This will make sure you always praise for each behaviour.

Trust me, the results are quicker!!!!
