Watch for the development of the Dog
Obedience Trials website towards the end of 2006.
DogObedienceTrials.com will be a comprehensive information site with
articles detailing the 'how to' of training your dog or puppy in all the requisite training steps
necessary to compete at the three
levels of dog obedience competition: novice obedience training,
open obedience training, and utility obedience training. Everything you
need to know for your canine's obedience training at all three levels will
eventually be covered here.
The first section I will be developing will relate to Open Obedience
Training. I will be progressively publishing a series of articles
detailing the following steps for the second level of your dog's obedience
training.
These steps will detail the how to of training for:
Heeling
Drop In The Distance
Drop On Recall
Retrieve In Play
Holding On Command
Carrying On Command
Jumping
Jumping While Carrying
The "Take it!"
Reaching For The Dumbbell While Walking
Picking Up The Dumbbell From The Ground
Picking Up The Dumbbell On Command While
Walking
Retrieve On Flat
Retrieve Over Hurdle
The Broad Jump
Sit and Down Stays (Handlers out of sight)
I will also be adding a forum to this site
so that obedience trainers can share their tips and experience with
others. This will not only be a stand-alone information site, it will also
become a community site for others to share and discuss their experiences.
Please
bookmark this page, and come back in the coming months to be a part of
it's development.
