Course Details
Will your dog down when standing next to you, but not a distance?
How about in the presence of distractions? Other dogs nearby? When facing away from you? When you're in motion?
What about while working sheep?
The down at a distance is one of the most critical skills a stock dog needs to safely and effectively herd livestock, yet it is a behavior that is tricky to train and even harder to maintain.
In this workshop, we'll go over the key steps for teaching a reliable down at a distance and put together a plan to progress this behavior as well as to maintain it.
Bonus: If your dog has a solid down for herding, she'll also have a stellar drop on recall for Obedience, a bombproof start-line stay for agility, and a potentially life-saving skill for every day life!
