WelshAndy Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Great video, thanks for sharing. How old is the pup and what age did you start her on dummies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee-kinsman Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Ey up, Thank you for your compliments. She's 19weeks old and takes each day in her stride. Requires very little if no correction at all, the perfect pupil really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee-kinsman Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Great video, thanks for sharing. How old is the pup and what age did you start her on dummies? I started her retrieving at 6 weeks old. This is her and her litter sister https://youtu.be/C17ns37r4pI She was probably 13 or 14weeks old when she'd fully transitioned onto dummies from tennis ball. The process for me is sponge balls, tennis balls, dummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labstaff Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Another great video. You clearly have a great bond with your dog. Are you hoping to trial her in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee-kinsman Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Another great video. You clearly have a great bond with your dog. Are you hoping to trial her in the future? Thank you. I have hoped to trial competitively for a few years now but with a few major life changes I've only been able to go to a handful. Had some success with my cocker but she really needed someone to run her regularly to get where she deserved. The pups sire is my dog, I'm hoping to run him this year. He's outstanding. The pup I think she has what it takes to trial, like her dad she will be able to hold her own amongst the best so yes I'll give her a go if everything else permits it. For me though the most important thing is that we enjoy training and we do. Thank you for your comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
