That's great buddy all the best for it!! Check out the website (mission focused) for my book talking you through the whole process. Best of luck!!!

If you visit Mission Focused website you'll be able to get it there 🙂

Morning, I think that's a great technique!!! Training the heal is such a hard thing to do, some dogs really just want to be out in front. How is your dog's toy drive? We are going to try and get Poppy's toy drive up because she will love chasing a toy but often drops it and prefers to sniff the ground haha! If you are in Instagram tag us in a pic of your dog so I can see you both training :) I'm really getting back into TH-cam as a creative / fun outlet so really appreciate your comment btw!

morning, thanks for the compliment! Yeah if you email: missionfocused@outlook.com I can send you some

@@thecairdcompany2811 I’ve sent you an email. Thanks

yeah she has really enjoyed it, and I think it worked well over the years to build her focus on us. Do you do any attention work / training?

Thank you so much for the lovely comment!

Dude, thank you so much for the truly awesome comment! Having spent my entire career in the military & Police it is really challenging to step into entrepreneurship! I sometime think my accent has gone... then I listen to myself and realise it is definitely still there haha !

awesome, thanks for the great comment! It was really sunny that day, could do with some sun this week haha

There are trainers and trainers! Need calm otherwise they don’t listen!

That's such a lovely comment, thank you! What type of dog do you have? We have just moved to a new house with a nice back garden so we are looking forward to doing more videos. Our dog has really settled down and matured now she is 2. What age is your dog?

​@@thecairdcompany2811 He is a Lagotto Romagnolo and will be turning 3 yrs on July 13 2024. I am looking forward to seeing more of you and your beautiful pup. ❤

Hi, thanks for the awesome comment. I would try a mix in your training, maybe load up on treats at the start and then swap it to attention or no treat and see the dogs reaction. But some dogs are really food focused and work best for tasty treats. What type of dog do you have?

@@thecairdcompany2811 English Springer Spaniel. He loves attention during downtime but isn't motivated by it during training, unfortunately. He is always on the lookout for a treat and I just can't get him working without either a treat or a ball (a ball isn't realistic to use if I simply want a 'down'). I'm stuck :(

what type of dog do you have?

we used kibble which was part of her meals when she was younger. It defiantly worked to keep her attention on us, and actually really mentally stimulated the dog. What type of dog do you have?

german shepherd working line 1,5 years old

Hi Ian, thanks for the awesome comment. The "dog trainer" was our eldest son. He did the vast majority of the training for Poppy... who knew getting a kid a dog would teach the kid so many lessons haha. Our son did really well with getting an obedient and calm dog. Do you have a dog over in Germany?

@@thecairdcompany2811 yes, we used to have a dachshund he was 17 when we had to put him down, after about 12 months we realized that we can’t live without a dog, so now we have a 5 month old Labradoodle. He is just a fantastic dog.

thank you so much for the lovely comment! I can only imagine how hot it is across there in Florida!!! I know what you mean, it is hard because Poppy has picked up the training so fast haha! Awesome to think someone in America is watch my training over here!

it's "grammAr" 😉

Omg Lol 😅

Love the editing

Thanks for the kind words, and I totally agree with the benefits we as humans get from the training process of dogs! Is your dog 18 months or did you get it at an older age? We are at dog fest Bristol if you are going this year, come and see us

We were in the exact same position with Poppy. She would be soooo calm in the house and on walks... but then see a dog and get hyper focused. We just made sure we continued to exposure her to these situations and not walk the other way or cross the road otherwise they can sense your concern. Maybe try favourite treat or toy to distract and keep attention but still expose the dog to the situation of being near the other dog. Let me know if that makes any sense? Cheers, Rees

awesome buddy! what type of dog do you have? Our lab only needs one walk a day with some training stuff done at home by the kids

Mental enrichment is key

haha I know! I wish I had access to one. My eldest did such a good job teaching Poppy that it is actually quite hard to demonstrate with her. What type of do do you have?

Guilty as charged :) I'm normally the one that spots this on other people's thumbnails aswell haha!

Poor grammar erodes your credibility as a so-called authority... Not fixing it makes it even worse.

No one really cares.

I want to watch dog training not grammar lessons!

@@bethhayes8427Yes they do

It was our (me and my wifes) eldest son. He has done the majority of the training and keeps me in check with training tips haha! Do you have a dog?

Thank you so much for the kind comment!! When Poppy was younger, she would disengage with us as we approached other dogs, they were just too exciting! I would say it's important to consider how close your dog can be to other dogs before they disengage with you. Engagement games at home work well for building your bond, and we will demonstrate some fun games in future videos. If treats work for you, make a noise to get your dogs attention, then reward (with a treat), every time your dog looks at you. If they break their attention away from you, and focus on the approaching dog, repeat the noise, and reward again when they are looking, and are focused on you. Most important thing is staying calm with a loose lead... so much easier said than done haha! Follow us on Instagram and tag The CAIRD compant to share pics of your dog and any training tips you have for the community which would be really great!

just foxes haha

I go for my assessment day on the 10th of May. Have you any tips mate seems like you’ve done it fairly recently would appreciate it thanks

@@lewistx6688 sorry mate didn’t notice the reply! Talk to people. Use all the stuff supplied ie calculator. If you haven’t done so already download the mock tests and find your strong points, for me I flew through the maths but took longer to do the information handling questions so I done that last so I wasn’t wasting too much time. I’ll be at Jackton on the 10th as well mate. I pulled out last year as my son took unwell but I have reapplied.

@@scottgraham1891 appreciate it mate. I thought the paper is no calculator? Have you somewhere I can message you mate answer a few more questions would appreciate it

@scottgraham1891 - Dude really appreciate the comment. The whole point of doing these videos is to help people so to hear that it is actually useful is awesome! I did 6 years (2 response / 4 CID) and truly enjoyed it! Left to re-join the military which was a random side quest haha

@lewistx6688 - Best of luck buddy! Let me know how you get on

Hi Brett, thank you so much for watching the video!! Really glad that you enjoyed it! Do you have a dog?

Will upload soon

@@thecairdcompany2811 please do more fella

@@jackwhyte6529 I'm going to drop the ultimate Police Scotland guide

aww I am sure you are doing amazing! What type of dog breed do you have??

love how you call it a YARD :) where about do you live?

@@thecairdcompany2811 Well actually Germany. Not sure if that word is actually British or American English so yeah 😁.

Evening, thank you so much for the lovely comment!! How is your Staffy getting on?

@@thecairdcompany2811 Merle is doing great! He's around 7 years old but has the energy of a 6 month old so a game of Frisbee is in order to take the edge off him before playing these games. He had virtually no recall when I got him but now he at least responds to his name when called. He doesn't always come when called but he's getting better. Thanks so much for you taking the time to share your training techniques with we youtubers!

Evening Helen, we were in the exact same position with Poppy. If she spotted another dog, she would bolt for the heavens and play with it all night if she could. Luckily her reaching 2 has matured her and she knows to stay close now. How old is your dog?

Thank you for watching! do you have a dog?

it should be in the content library of the channel?

@@thecairdcompany2811isn’t there bud?

Glad it was helpful! how is the training going?

Evening, sorry for the slow reply! Yeah we sometimes use kibble and sometimes just normal training treats. If we are doing it in a very busy place I will use a few pieces of chicken or ham just to get her focused on me haha

The old Skool may call it "English" haha just reading & writing basically. You applying?

That's awesome tips, thanks! My eldest has used them before and also said he liked training with them! Will get some for future videos!
