Hi everyone.. I need some advice. Last Saturday I took Lupo to obedience training with the rottie club in the morning. We did some obedience and a bit of fun on tbe agility course. Lupo enjoyed it, although he didn't have his tail up. In my experience he has to be very familiar with a place before he holds his tail up.. he was very well behaved, tolerated all dogs and people. Only once with an unruly pup did he growl. Then to nosework. Again as I said before, very well behaved, very tolerant. I worked on his eyes command, he did very well.. and then the next day, a long walk on the beach, not one we go to often, and he wants to hunt dogs.. it actually feels like that, he stares intently and wants to go for them. I keep a big distance, him on the lead, and try leave that area. He is under control, hes not dragging me around, but I have to be on it...
Any advise much appreciated.. particularlyaround generalizing this behavior. we will continue with training twice every Saturday, I will continue with exercising him well.. I suppose this situation requires a friend with a dog at a far distance, and to keep asking for "eyes" .
What do you all think of Leerburg technique.. ?
Thank you ...
