A place to gain transformation and develop teamwork, at a whole new level, during the retrieve training journey. A place to grow, to learn, to see yourself differently.
When you have the dog in a "Stand", then "Hold", NO COMMAND is issued at all. Why? Because when you command "Heel" you have superseded the "HOLD" command and if the dog drops it, it isn't fair to give the HOLD correction. A dog is ONLY responsible for the last command given - this principle becomes critical in AKC obedience trials AND in AKC Hunt Tests.
MUCH better. Love the stairs.
