Question for those of you who do competition obedience, IPO and other activities with your mastiffs that require perfect healing with the dog's head up at all times... Could you please share what training method you used to teach healing? We are attending competition obedience classes. Ajax is doing pretty well in all areas, except his healing. My theory is that the training method they use is not right for him, since the lady who developed it has been training retrievers her whole life. Or I might just be doing something wrong. Yes, there are tons of videos on -line, but I was interested in personal success stories, methods that have been proven to work for mastiffs.
And FYI, Ajax is a CC, 1 year, 3 months old.
