Oh good. For others, the link is here: [MEDIA] Just to say though, I never used the exercise of a stop on recall but worked on send out to the...
Hello there, and a very warm welcome to the forum. You have raised such a lot of different issues, it's a bit challenging to know where to...
If I need to do so, I lift Charlie with one hand between his front legs, and he other under his tummy.
I don't treat Charlie behind for a stop, and rarely walk back to him, but simply mark what he gets the reward for - still, bum on ground, then I...
Ah, no. I didn't say that. I wouldn't use a fierce tone to intimidate a dog into doing something I hadn't trained him to do - well, I might under...

Sniffing the ground.....lots of people will say different things on this.....there is a reason why they say different things - because it depends...
Yes, of course, if you need to walk him along roads where his lead needs to be short enough to stop him moving into the road, absolutely. That has...
Ah, thanks @Stacia - I've worked my socks off for that one exercise.....:D:D:D Now for the next 1000......
I do, yes, I wouldn't have him on his 2m "go sniff" walking along a highstreet, no. I'd shorten his lead (and indeed me shortening his lead is...
