I am interested in the Muzzle Fighting And Leg Biting aspect of this disscussion. I started working my 2 1/2 year old male in PP about 5 months ago. I was hoping to learn more about the muzzle fighting because my trainer has had me get my dog used to the muzzel & will start with it soon. I am concerned about what Mick had said about it being easy to ruin a dog this way. I was hoping that someone would expound on these issues.

I would like to say that I understand that highly trained Police dogs are "more" dog than I would want my dog to be. SchH is not available in my area & I am doing the PP as a sport for my dog. I really don't expect to "need" my dog for personal protection but it would be nice to know I can rely on him should the occasion arise. However, I do take him amongst the public & expect him to act like the well socialized rottweiler he is.

Any advice on what I should expect from my dog & my trainer on these issues of training for PP will be greatly appreciated. I do respect the opinions of those who post in these forums. I also realize I have alot to learn & will not ever do anything to ruin my well tempered dog.

Thanks, Patricia
