And that's the trick!

When I train with Bailey...if I get a real nice heeling pattern first time round...we celebrate and do something else. Each dog is different, but, I have also found that fewer training sessions works best and short and sweet, along with learning new things on a regular basis and often in the form of a game. Actually, to me, training is 'play' with rules.


As Judi said, other breeds, like Goldens, will go on and on with repetitions.

Rotties don't see the point in repeating after they have gotten it right. They are the ready to 'add on'
