Description
Duration: 2H 56M
This series of 10 videos have been filmed and devised to provide comprehensive and minute detail in various aspects of a puppy’s upbringing. Although it is possible to purchase individual chapters all of the videos are interlinked with the same/similar themes running through them, therefore by purchasing individual chapters may not provide the complete picture or information you are looking for. The common themes are “the stop, recall, empathy, clicker training and in general guidance and nurturing”. The overall aim is to build a strong and everlasting bond where sheep work is seen as a partnership and beautiful poetic art form with no place for antiquated old fashioned methods. By using our methods you will not only provide a totally fail safe environment for training, but also, you will greatly minimise the problems you are likely to face in the future. The carefully edited compilation of videos consciously includes the highs and the lows, to demonstrate how mistakes and problems are turned into learning opportunities. The use of Clicker Training is novel to sheepdog training but widely used in many other disciplines with great success.

All good stuff. I’d like to have seen Nij begin to use “stand” and “lie down” as commands rather than as names attached to behaviors the dogs exhibit of their own accord. My fear about making the transition is that I might start too soon. When should one start and what if it’s too early? Also, Nij’s comment that some of the most common unwanted behaviors like sniffing, tugging on the lead and jumping up on people are connected to the chase instinct was a keen insight. I wish he would have gone further with it. All in all his curiosity about the way dogs think and learn is refreshing. He’s remarkably patient with the pups Pip and Cap and sets a good example for those of us anxious not to make mistakes with gifted but untrained dogs.
