Hmmmm. Quantity dictates the training around my place and the lack there of, but I don't need them doing the flowery stuff.
When I'm home, in the morning they are all out for an empty and a quick stretch then all away again except one or two of them. These ones will get an extra 15 minutes or so just being away from the others and personal time with me, then they will go on a chain outside not in with the rest. Middle afternoon those one or two will get a bit more time then the whole crew get loaded up and away somewhere for a decent run. Electric collars onto any that need a refresher course on stock or anything else. Home watered and feed and away, then before I go to bed they are all out for another quick drink and an empty.
At work, out in the morning for a quick walk to empty then hang about outside playing, fighting, just doing dog stuff. Two hours or so later back in the box till work time which is whenever it cools a bit, somewhere around three to four hours later we are home, watered again then feed and into the box. Once I get home from nightshooting they are out for about ten to fifteen minutes for more water and another chance to empty. Repeat.
All training apart for stock proofing is done on the hill.
