There are other breeds that are really smart but they're often more independent. GSDs seem to really enjoy learning.<BR/><BR/>So that makes any training exciting as you learn more and more how to communicate and expand on their knowledge of how humans operate.<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow we're meeting with some scent trainers to see if she's good at finding things. I already know she is, but I'm looking forward to seeing how they train this. The two women I'm meeting with are supposed to be great at this.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-25508223938047887942008-03-09T09:49:00.000-06:002008-03-09T09:49:00.000-06:00I've never heard of such a detailed obedience clas...I've never heard of such a detailed obedience class, but it sounds like a great idea. My theory is that most dogs are eager to please <I>if</I> they understand what's expected of them.<BR/>Take "Pookie" (a composite of many dogs I know). He dashes in the street, jumps on everyone, snaps at your food, attacked me (I wasn't hurt, but he mutilated my purse), and thinks a house/office is a giant chew toy & bathroom combo. <BR/>The dog's out of control, yet all the owner does is call "Pookie! Pookie!"Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-29561484340913682332008-03-09T07:13:00.000-06:002008-03-09T07:13:00.000-06:00But she doesn't really need obedience school, does...But she doesn't really need obedience school, does she?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-73126290646650231172008-03-08T21:30:00.000-07:002008-03-08T21:30:00.000-07:00The phrase "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed" has to h...The phrase "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed" has to have been derived from Molly.Linda Davickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660351950973083893noreply@blogger.com
