Featured Tutorial – The Perfect Stop!

Improve your dog’s stop without damaging its confidence

A dog which will stop instantly on command is a great asset on any livestock farm. The most common fault among working sheepdogs is that they’re too eager, and their handler cannot stop them precisely when and where they need to, but over-intense training can damage a sensitive dog’s confidence.

“The Perfect Stop” tutorial points out ways in which you can improve your dog’s stop while maintaining or even building the dog’s confidence.

The tutorial also explains why Andy uses the “Lie down” command in preference to “Stand”, why he prefers his dogs to remain standing when they stop, and why he doesn’t always want the dog to stop when he gives it the “Lie down” command!
