| Re: Schutzhund?
both of you guys need to read up on schH.
keep the pitbull out of schH, in general they are not suitable for schH.
If you're rottie pup is 15wks then you should go down to your local club and have them check out the dog. There is a certain way you need to raise and train the pup for the most effectiveness.
research ivan balabanov and positive motivation.
right now, I wouldn't do anything with your pup except play tug...always let him win. Make sure the tug toy is special. Play with him for a few short sessions a day and then put it away. Play fetch with a ball too but for short period.
Don't keep any toys lying around the house and don't over feed your dog.
At the very least find an OB trainer that know schH - you want 1:1 session and ask him to show you "The Game" An experienced trainer who knows schH will know what that means.
SchH takes considerable time 20+ hrs per week. |
