To stop at a distance – why is that sometimes so difficult? We often have students who think it is a huge challenge to get the dog to work at a distance from them. They usually also think that it is difficult to get the dog to stop when she hears the stop whistle...

Let me show you one of my favorite exercises to teach the dog the foundation skills for the stop whistle. I find it really difficult to interrupt a dog that’s deeply engrossed in hunting – weather it’s a hunt that I asked for or if we’re out on a walk and the dog...

My dog Tassla and I took a little longer break from the gun dog training and now I try to remind her of all the things we did before the break. I always find it very interesting to find out what happens when we take a break in the training. In my experience many...

In a previous post on steadiness, Sit, sit, sit, I talk about the importance of the dog being able to sit and remain sitting in various situations (no matter if it’s a spaniel or retriever – and if you don’t want your retriever to sit on the stop...

Stop whistle training is always something that we get lot of questions about and therefore I will showyou a short video of a smart stop whistle exercise I learned in Wales last summer. It’s easy to get stuck on an exercise and always (or several times)...
