Kaos Central Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Hi all, the people we are doing flyball training with has loaned me some videos by Steve Austin about dog training...has any one ever heard of him??? we are having some problems with our JRT's and the video raises some interesting points but if he his tecniques work it will basically mean we go back to the start and begin again!!!! the dogs are all under 14 months so i might have a chance but i am not sure if i want to start over without knowing if it will work. any comments are welcome thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonymc Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Kaos,Steve is a top Man with a Dog.I do not understand the reluctance to start again.If your having problems now,the only way to rectify the problems is to change what your doing.

Sarah L Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Totally agree with you Tony. There is no harm to starting all over again, infact it could improve the dogs behaviour so much better. KC Steve's video would help you alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haven Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Great guy, great trainer, great teacher ;) ETA: A lot of training issues occur because the dog was rushed through training and a propper foundation was not laid. Going back to basics is a great way to approach training when you're having difficulty solving a problem ;) Edited October 15, 2007 by haven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos Central Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 thank you all.....it looks like we get to start over....the good news is that i can get our other dogs on the same path....i dont care how long it takes i want good dog citizens.

Arya Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I would rank Steve Austin as one of the very very few truly gifted animal trainers I have seen. He is absolutely brilliant man and to watch him work with dogs in particular is a privilege. Anyone getting the opportunity to learn from him or to attend a lecture, it is not to be missed. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
