Yes, they are pretty strong and try it on but you got to keep on keeping on. You think you've sussed it but they can frustrate you at times, all part of it. Engagement and patience.
Thank you for sharing your videos I have an 8 1/2 month working cocker spaniel who is a pet, but he loves the rustling through the fields looking for rabbits or listening to the pheasants and sniffing them out. He wears an harness at the moment and from getting out of the front door a 15 minute walk to the fields he pulls like a steam train. We have tried the head collars and other halti to help control his pulling, I understand he is a working cocker and prey driven but I would love just to take that short walk to the fields for him not to pull before he is let off to go and explore.
Hi, thanks for your comment. We really do find the best approach is on a slip lead. Myself and the team will put some videos together in the new year to try and address your issue in more detail as it is a common problem. We will also address recall.
@KugaeGundogs Thank you for sharing your videos I'll look forward to watching them we bought him an halti and he doesn't like anything on his nose so wears a harness but you can't control his pulling as its his nature a working cocker who is prey driven.
Folk want a trained dog from day one, when you put the work in early on there’s nothing better than a Springer…and yes they also have their Tasmanian Devil (brilliant description) moments to get you to love them more😊
I have a Sp[roker he is awesome. People say Ohhhh John!! them dogs have ADHD!! what a load of crap. Obedient, trusting, playful. Ive played games with him from the off and he's very easy to train. Know the breed do ya homework. TOP DOGS...
The problem is, that people never research the breed of dog, before they buy it. I bought a cocker spaniel, fully aware of what they were bred for. I have 5 acres, have done basic obedience training, and she is a top little dog. Of course she's naughty, she's a dog. I have expected anything else from her. Unrealistic expectations is the main problem with people.
Another superb video. Thanks. Like your style of training.
Thank you, taken onboard !
