| Bigwright,
this is very common with typically trained sport dogs... if they are never presented with new scenarios, how could they possibly be expected to know how to react??
the answer is, they can't... Mick's post above is a perfect example... he presented his dog with a new scenario, and the dog showed some things that Mick didn't like, so what does he do???
he trains better... (obviosly better is relative, I am sure that Mick's training is hardly lacking to begin with ;) ) that is what we must all do... constantly strive for a more well rounded dog
