Another night training mission.Home late from work,the lad had my quad.Took Bo up the road for a walk and "Sit,Stay" was tonights lessons.Got him sitting and staying up to 80 metres away.Bit hard to see the black boy can just make out his eyes.:)Attachment 91762Attachment 91763
good stuff,we taught sit stay at food time......the drool can get a tad embarassing but it sure worksLOL.
Daylight training today.Managed a few retrieves under gun fire.

just a thought here bud.....DONT call dog off a long sit....go and get him off it....that way the dog will wait till you get back to it before moving resisting temptation to break un asked.
my old bitch was very good at waiting for food....backfired one christmas morning,sat poor Buttons on lawn,put her dog roll a couple of meters away,told her to sit then got busy and forgot...went to mum in laws for lunch and luckily got sent home for someplurrything....buttons was still sitting waiting 3 hours later,she was ever so grateful Id come home.
Mickey I have trained 3 pure bred labs in my 46 yrs.The first one was Sambo nah i'm not racist but love working black labs..Sambo was in in a kennel outside my sleep out on a farm I was working on.I fell asleep and poor Sambo was still sitting waiting in the morn for the command to eat.:wtfsmilie:
sambo and nigger were both common names for big black dogs a few years back....this P.C. world has gone crazy.
I wanted to call Meg a diferent name but my wife said no....payback would be a perfect name for her I thought.....she pays me back for what we do for her....she pays back the deer for eluding me in the past and best of all when dumb people say "oh hes a nice dog" I could reply "paybacks a bitch" and walk away leaving them confused.
Had a cockatoo named sambo and a black pig named niglet
Not much to see with the black boy tonight,on the quad then a ride in the ute:)

Are you teaching him hand signals as silent commands at the same time ?. You are certainly doing a great job with him. It is amazing what you have achieved so far !!
Thanks @Moa Hunter no silent signals yet just voice commands and whistle.
Tonight a frozen duck came out of the freezer for a few retrieves.

I reckon his retrieving is awesome,all that breast meat not touched.:) More work tomorrow and going to make things a bit harder in the training.
Should see if he can carry a egg in his mouth used to be the party trick with my lab till one day he dropped it and realised what was inside was eatable :thumbsup:
Bo has had a week off retrieving but was bloody good tonight on the magpie.
