Course Details
Will your dog down next to your feet, but not a distance? How about in the presence of distraction? 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 and a bombproof start-line stay for agility!
