  1. Does any one know if you can download the sessions or you just have to watch online? My home web connection is bad and drops out a lot, I also wonder if I would have the time to watch them as theu were uploaded.
  2. http://www.cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=2879 Facebook jusst became even more evil. This popped up. Sounds like a good book anyone else have an opinion?
  3. Just wondering what he will be covering in this day?
  4. Thanks for the advice everyone. Turns out you need to send the original certificate in to get the title and we no longer have the original. It go water damaged and to get a new one was a stat dec and a fee so we never worried about it. In hinesite maybe I should have. I'm going to Google my little but off and see if I can find a picture of a title certificate and mock one up.
  5. Wow sounds interesting would love to know how this turns out. I have read about teaching blink to help a dog relax but not sure how to do it.
  6. Oh No I can't find the forms on the new website. HELP
  7. Thanks for the info guys. I will get on to it. A new reg cert will be nice hers is long lost. Only an associate so not much on it but still nice. I have a few Flyball bits, photos, his pass cards, a mini motivator. Will see what else I can find. So the VCA stuff will look good. Might email someone from NADAC and see if they have anything or at least what she was up too.
  8. I have just a quick question about getting your Agility Titles. Hubby got his JD with his dog shortly before she passed away. I am making up a collection of things to go in a large frame for him. Do the VCA issue certificates or something for the titles? and if so how do I go about getting it?
  9. Hmm I have been thinking about getting something like these but i'm not sure exactally what to do with them. I have seen large ones with all four feet on them but what else can you do and what on earth would you get a dog to do with the small ones. Do I need to think outside the box?
  10. Ok so from reading everyones comments I will up the reinforsment rate (am using a clicker) making sure I'm very calm (have been doing that to make sure I'm not cuing other things)and def look into more "its your choice" as I have looked a little. Stay will come when she can hold a sit for more than a micro second, then I can think about cueing it. "bed" is the cue for going to bed and it is a seerate thing to stay. It is the only time she can be remotely still when not in a crate or out the back (in the laundry) without humans. Hypo dogs sometimes I wonder while I like em that way. :p
  11. Ok so as the title says really. I have done a heap of Googleing and thought I would ask for a few DOLer tried and tested methods. She is very good with the cicker but can't sit still. Like I mean hardly at all. She can sit in her bed inside on the cue "bed" but I have to reinforce a lot still or she gets out then runs back to it again. I have never had a dog so fidgity, She can't hold a sit even while I don't move let alone atempt to move. Her sits are long enought to click and feed but that is it. I have a few ideas but looking for DOLer experience.
  12. I used to have a healer x that only had 3 legs (hers was a front one. Her chest muscles and others were built up more to cope with the changed pressure. I think that so long as the dog was fit then his rear muscles would compensate. Rear ends give power and push up over jumps. It is the front that takes the impact of landing after a jump, stopping on a contact, a bouncing see saw. If he coped well at training and was enjoying it I can't see why you couldn't compete.
  13. What is the 101 things to do with a box game? I would love to find some more quiet games to play indoors with them as I can't do much when Bubby is around he steals the treats and the target and chucks toys to the dogs. LOL. But when he is in bed the lounge is very close to him and I wake him up sometimes training. (bad mummy) Sitting in a chair is probably a good idea as I am trying to get them to interact with other objects ATM. One the weave poles and One to drop in a target.
  14. SLightly newbie question here but are some of these changes seem to be about "saftey" that could actully be overcome with training.
  15. Wasn't having a dig at you TW. Sorry if you took it that way.
