Re: Chasing

I want to thank you all for your advise. I am doing the long lead and boot camp. It's funny that some of you mentioned herding. I am currently on a waiting list for herding class. Prior to this problem I had thought that the herding would be a fun way to continue to work on obedience. When he started chasing and not responding to the recall I thought herding might make it worse. My girlfriend, who has a yellow lab, attended her first herding class last Friday. She said her dog loved it, but she was afraid (my girlfriend, not the dog) of the ram and sheep coming right at her! She spoke with the instructor on my behalf and he feels that the herding would be an appropriate outlet for my boy as well. I will definitely let you know how the herding goes. Thanks again.
