fire hose tugs a used to help promote a stronger grip same as using leather tugs the dog learns that if it doesnt bite hard enough it looses the toy/pray thats why softer tugs like the dogquip ones are a great starter tug or full use tug it all depends on what u want ur out come to be

good stuff finaly u can have a rest

warrnambool dog school has a good set up and nice instructors all ways willing to help out

try the falcon method this might sound mean at first starve for 24hrs first then like the others said ur dogs gota earn his tea reward =some tea

no tugs "quote" 34A Dangerous dogs A dog is a dangerous dog if— (a) the dog is kept as a guard dog for the purpose of guarding non-residential premises; or (b) the dog has been trained to attack or bite any person or any thing when attached to or worn by a person. i wouldnt be to conserned (spl?) about it though i havnt seen or been told of some one doing any thing about it

have a look at the wbool dog school site they have a list of places to stay

hi mike welcome to DOL there are a handful people on here that have civil and sch sport dogs on here look forward to hearing what you have to say

here is the other group http://www.sportdogaustralia.com/index.htm dont qoute me on this but i think sothern cross has finished

get a pic of one take it to a leather shop that deals with horse leather with the mesurement (spl) of the dogs nrck and presto

for walks i use a 2ft nylon lead with all joins double stiched training and work i use a 6ft leather lead for

go to a sail maker or canvas shop and get it made the way you want

if you are having trouble with your recall get ur self a long line let ur dog wonder when your ready call ur dog and u real in ur dog like a fishing rod once ur dog finish were u want (in front or at the heal) reward with a treat, food, tug toy or clicker what ever u use

does any one have the scores i wanna know if any of a breeders friends dogs made it or competed

i agree with gsd handler a good dog is trained to turn on and off like a switch they are told to work and when to play its the same for sport or sec dog

eather one of these are good for weight pull i have the nylon and a leather one like the pic but hand made nylon for weight pull and leather for aggitation work these are from www.fordogtrainers.com in the sates i had the nylon one in about the week

you can get away with not having a prong collar i borrow 1 if i need it i have to say this but i dont see the need for a ecollar (but that depends on the style the trainer uses) and i make my own tug toys

for a good collar and lead will cost you between 100 and 120$ (handmade) muzzle can be any were from 50$ up to $450

some thing simular play with him tug,ball what ever when your ready do some obediance after a minute or 2 go back to playing do that 4 or 5 each or untill you both stuffed from to much play it is also a good way to get the dog focus as well because they see that if i do well at obediance i get to play again

it looks like a rayallan creat just google rayallan and send them an email there is a rep in nsw but i dont know who it is

email them to find your local supplyer

any item will do you could use a stick or a toy at 1 semiar i went to a lady used a childs fairy wond(sp?) stick once the dog gets that its easy to change what you want the dog to touch

there are some good trainer doing schutzhund at the moment but in saying that there are some bad there is a reason for it not be registered i couldnt tell you much on it but jeff jones can there have been dog groups trying to fix that for years

thanks jeff

i would belive that midol and its those people that give our industrie a bad name and makes it harder for us to get work because some (not all) people think he dogs are a danger not a deterant

its done the same dog sits and barks until person moves when that happens the dog gets the bite
