Teaching Heel Position - Border collie puppy Spam's first weekend at a seminar away from home.
Spam is 19 weeks old and we've mostly worked on her rear end awareness and coming to heel on both sides. She's also joined on a trip to an agility seminar where she worked on both skills and on relaxing by the agility ring.

Thank you! It really means a lot that people appreciate it. Making the videos takes some time and I'm happy that you take the time to comment.
I absolutely love the way you are working with your dogs. I have an 18 month old red heeler cross from a shelter, she is eager to do agility but gets distracted and excited so easily. I learn a lot from your videos about the basics and I feel confident that we will catch up with everything she missed in her first year of life. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I love seeing calm bordercollies and people who teach them to wait and be patient 😍 When I first came into agility world, I had this impression that borders are super crazy dogs who are on go-go-go mode all the time and only later realised that it's not true actually.

Thanks! I think it's important too. I've been blessed with a line of dogs (Epic and his offspring) that like to quietly watch (which doesn't mean that they're super relaxed, it's more of a herding thing I think). I've also had Epic's half-sister Squid who I've had to manage for her entire life as she can't be calm and quiet around an agility ring. She started screaming at 9 weeks...

I love watching this series. I am always so excited when another video pops up for the week!

So glad to hear that! Making the videos takes time, so I'm happy to hear that you're enjoying it. Thank you for commenting!
I absolutely love your videos! I wish my dogs would be more interested in toys then the treats! If my dog thinks she's going to get a treat she can stare for it literally 15-20 minutes haha, so if I would give her treats while she is calm, she immediately goes to work-mode DELUXE. Please keep posting videos! Love every single one!
😮🤩 Wow, Wow, Wow. She is Amazing
