LuvMyRott, are you still here? I sure hope so! Most dog-people don`t know understand Schutzhund. We just got started in a club. Barron loves the tracking part the best. He can do a fresh track really well! He`s still a baby, just had his birthday, but he has his CGC. The obidence part is even more than the CGC though, how do I keep his attention with the noises they use? We`re working hard on the attention drills and we do all the daiy training homework between classes. We got to use treats in his CGC class and we can`t in Schutzhund. He always turns his head toward the noise instead of keeping his eyes focused on me. Do you have any suggestions? I`m already walking him through groups of people to do his sits and downs, my neighbors reve their cars for us, and I`m using a cap-gun and a can of marbles for distractions. Any other ideas? I really want him to pass the obedience part of the test!
