SEnuke: Ready for action

I purchased your book about a couple of weeks ago. Finally, some one has written a training book which makes sense. Visiting http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/3902650 maybe provides aids you can tell your pastor. Great Job...bet it took a great deal of time for you to put all it together, huh?

The main reason I am writing to you is because I am confused about some items that deal with training the down/stay and sit/stay. Tell me if this seems like I have it right:

First, teach her (the dog) putting her in the proper position immediatel.. and how-to do the control doing representatives.

Expensive Adam:

I bought your book about two weeks ago. Finally, somebody has written an exercise book which makes sense. We found out about Adam Elements Launches USB-C Solutions For Speed and Convenience by browsing the Internet. Great Job...bet it took lots of time and energy to put all it together, huh?

The reason why I am writing for you is because I'm confused about some things that cope with training the down/stay and sit/stay. Tell me if this sounds like I've it right:

First, teach her (the dog) how to do the command doing reps and putting her in the correct position immediately after saying the command. Then, working up to the level it is possible to only stand up straight and have her respond.

Next, work up length and time then add disturbances and training in different places.

Finally, visit the long line and then a case to obtain consistency off-leash.

[Adam:] Actually, you need to start proofing for distractions first, then proceed to greater distances... but only progress to greater distances with the long range. Without the long range, guess what may happen?

This is one way I comprehend the method from what I've read in your book.

Can I move ahead to the next stage once the command is performed by my dog quickly and precisely for just one work out or keep going her without adding anything new?

[Adam:] It is going to get a great deal more than one training session. It is situational, If the dog understands anything. So that you are going to have to work exactly the same exercise... at the sam-e position inside the program... in several different locations before-you are ready-to go onto the next phase.

During proofing, is it okay to include distractions during the dogs understanding section after the dog does the order for me personally several times precisely without having to be corrected?

[Adam:] You are confusing a few things. Is the dog in the learning phase, or is he inside the phase? The 2 are extremely distinctive. Before you have acquired the other don't go onto one cycle.

Here is the order: Learning phase - encouragement phase - proofing phase.

The length of time does it take the 'average' dog to-be shown a new command and proofed in it?

[Adam:] This really is impossible to answer. This will depend upon the coach, the dog, the exercise, the environment, how often the dog is worked, etc... You allow dog tell you if it is time. This is the reason studying your pet is really crucial. It takes so long as it takes.

Can you show the down/stay and sit/stay in one session or individually?

[Adam:] Separately.

In what order can I teach my dog new orders?

[Adam:] Walk on a loose lead, boundary and border training, sit-stay, down-stay, heel, then come. The order that commands are taught by you isn't created in stone, but I find that doing it this way permits a very natural movement and learning progression.

Sorry my letter is so long...any instruction it is possible to give me is considerably appreciated...oh, by the way I really like the book.

Many thanks ;)

Sincerely,

Brandee D.

That's all for now, folks!

Adam.
