It gives you the skills and the confidence to tackle so many of those life skills issues and get them sorted being handed a 'recipe' on how to fix x,y and z. The difference is understanding the dog training science behind it vs. One of my battles with instructing agility is that so many dogs don't have the basic skills and the handlers don't have the understanding or confidence on how to tackle even basic life skills issues. SGs work has given me the tools to make me the trainer I am today. While I'm not out there setting the world on fire competition wise I do have three high drive dogs that I can take anywhere, and do just about anything with because I know they will behave themselves and not cause an ounce of trouble. If I had $5 for every compliment I get on my dog's good behaviour from colleagues, friends, vets, accommodation places and general Joe public plus the peace of mind it gives you - I'd have paid my way through Recallers a dozen times over.Ĥ weeks training at our club is $40 for 3 hours. I haven't done any SG stuff for a year or so now but I did a lot of her early online stuff - including Recallers, Contacts, Handling 360 etc. So excited!Īt $46 a month its well worth it. Everyone seems so uplifting and supportive and a minimum 5min training session a day is pretty achievable! I can't wait to have a dog who is reliable off lead and who'll spin back on recall from anything (assuming I put the effort in of course). Lots of videos, printouts, Facebook group, forum/chat room, help and a cd at the end off the top of my head. I think it works out to $46 a month overall because you get 13 months and other bonus things. I think I've seen your name pop up a few times TSD and I saw the cute pic of Em? on the vets table staring at a treat lol
