Title: Dog Training School
Post by: Raven on January 23, 2017, 14:14:11

(All links are to short You Tube videos, which show real dogs doing the exercises shown on these photographs.)

This is the beginner's class, where the dog owners are teaching their dogs to walk nicely beside them, pay attention to what they are told to do, and, of course, ignore the other dogs at the same time.

These dogs are more advanced, and are practicing laying down and staying where told, even when there are distractions - like balls being thrown in front of them.

Outside, the dog in the foreground is weaving in and out of poles, which is a part of Agility competitions.

(The dog actually made an error - in avoiding the nearby dogs, it entered the weaving poles at the second pole, but the owner is letting it continue.)

Behind the weaving poles, this dog is going to retrieve a dumbbell over a jump.

This dog is being lined up ready to be sent away to lay down on command between the cones.

Of course, not everyone at Dog Training School is good at controlling their dog....

I love it!  I was excited to see what you came up with when you told me the idea.

Looks great! Very thorough and they seem to be using all the modern techniques.

Nice job Raven!  Everyone seems to be having fun, even the dogs.   :)

Awesome!

Are those baby pebbles outside in the first pic? They look so cute!

Do those people in begginner's class have those purses for treats?

The pic with the lady that can't control her dog is AMAZING. Great posing.
(that'd be me, btw  :-[  Our dog and bitchy always did that to me. :P)

 :love:

In the dog toilet?  I would have liked it made of something smaller, but the smallest thing I had was coriander seeds.....

Look closely.  It's my avatar, actually!  And I do have a photo of me and a dog looking rather like that....

Ok, I googled what "coriander" is (I'm afraid names of herbs in english is really not my thing.. I do like to eat them!  :P)

You attention to detail is wonderful: the first picture with the pit of gravel for the dogs to do their business in (I assume?): genius!

Just found this.

A great picture story with lots of detail and a nice turn of humour with the dog owner who can't train her dog.
