Moondog, I think we're on the same page! People have asked me to help them train thier dog after seeing what I have done with Nando, and I LAUGH and tell them "I am his handler NOT a trainer!" they dont get it.
In my situation I am being trained to handle and teach Nando. My trainer is next to me or off on the sidelines and calling the shots. Its been awhile I have been training in SchH now, and he forces me to make more decisions on the field for Nando now, if I screw up he is there to teach me WHY that was the wrong decision.
Unfortunately, I have seen it in SchH (my frame of ref) some people have a little success with ONE dog and NOW THEY ARE DOG TRAINERS! It really is CRAZY to me!
