Gary - KNine Dog Trainer

Gary

I am taking Shula to dog training classes twice a week now because I have managed to reorganise my Sunday schedule. I think the bit she enjoys most is running free with the other dogs, but we are making slow progress on the disciplines. Gary our trainer is very patient, and as he says it is repetition, repetition and more repetition. Fortunately I have found a treat that Shula really likes but she still shows a lot of interest in what the other dogs are getting, keeping her attention is not as easy as it has been with previous dogs I have had but I am working on it. One thing I thought she would enjoy was the agility, but faced with the tunnel and the jumps she reverted to the timid little dog I first had. Anything new seems to throw her back so I think it will take careful handling, most of all I just want her to have fun.
