Cowgirl Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hey everyone! Howdy! What are the first things you want to train your BC or Aussie to do to get them a good foundation on starting to herd and heel. I am patiently awaiting my books, but wonder if you could give me some instruction on some basics I could work with while they crawl thru the snail mail. I am getting a six year old Aussie who is a big baby who still acts very young. He is very willing and I'd like to get him off to a good start. Help??

Bill Fosher Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 The first thing to teach him is to be your dog, and to be a good dog. Take your time and develop a relationship with him -- that means getting to know him probably at least as much as training him and maybe even more. Make sure he knows what you expect of him in your day-to-day life together, and the rest will follow pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
