Diving Dogs Training
What do you do with your dog…?
So I am wondering what other people here do with their dogs. There are so many things you can train your dog for such as obedience, agility, frisbee, herding, flyball, tracking, dock diving, earthdog, hunting, retrieving, sledding… and there’s more.
So what do you do with your dog and why did you decide to pursue this?
Do you compete in that venue or just do it for fun?
Is it something you wanted to do with your dog because it was bred for that purpose or the breed happens to do really well at it?
Have you yet earned any titles on your dog in any particular area?
Lots of great answers so far!
Dachshund Gal- right now, we have done a couple agility classes, practiced in rally-obedience and really in to doing herding training and obedience… with the hope of being ready for our first obed trial soon. I’ve done some obedience matches and we’re getting better each time! I’m hoping to take up tracking this winter too.
I was hooked on dog shows the first time I went in the ring! That was 15 yrs ago…
I’ve competed in obedience, done therapy work, public education…most recently Rally and herding. I believe an active dog is a happy dog. I also believe that dogs should be able to do what they were bred to do…Going and competing with my dogs (and others dogs) is my life…:-)))
