About this Event
Over the 2-day course you will learn a lot about your dog and its behaviour in general, how to communicate so your dog understands you, obedience, how to solve problems and of course everything there is to know about herding.
We use a ‘hands on approach’ starting with you and your dog on sheep, and back that up with white board instruction. We work in small groups and you learn understanding and developing the instincts of your dog and how to work with it, not against it. You learn communicating with your position and body movement: this foundation work will build strong working bonds with your dog and develop to a higher standard of ability. We will talk about and practice commands, obedience and stress free stock handling.
