Sheepdog Training Tutorials 1

Description

Almost 3 HOURS of herding dog training on two discs

From The Golden Rule of Sheepdog Training and Starting a Puppy through to Driving, Shedding and Starting a Strong Dog and how to remain calm but firm during training.

This great 2xDVD set contains the first 17 sheepdog training tutorials that originally appeared as part of the online tutorial programme on the Working Sheepdog Website.

It covers the topics that most handlers have questions about – from your pup’s very first introduction to sheep, through outruns and how to improve them, close work including getting sheep into and out of a yard, giving the sheep space, and right up to more advanced work including driving and basic shedding.

DVD – ALL Regions (we send the correct format for your location) – 16:9 Widescreen.

Disc two shows how to move on from the basics and teach the dog to do practical work around the farm.
