Sheep Chasing

Send us Fan MailDoes your dog love to chase? Do they struggle being around anything that moves? You are not alone! In this episode, our very own Lauren Langman, a top dog trainer and agility champion, opens up about her current struggles with her adolescent Border Collie, Nifty. One of those struggles? Nifty wants to chase, chase, chase! Whether it's sheep (that's Nifty's preference), squirrels, other critters, cars, or even people and dogs outside of your window, it can be so hard to know the path forward. Don't you worry. In this episode, we share what we've done when our dogs have struggled. Sometimes, the first foot forward isn't always the most obvious solution. In fact, instinctually, we often want to try to solve the problem by focusing on that specific context... We'll give you a hint (the rest is in the podcast, so definitely have a listen!)... Training IN the situation, when your dog's brain isn't responsive, isn't the best solution! Dog trainers dogs aren't perfect either. In fact, our dogs are some of our best educators. We share what works so that you don't have to go through the troubleshooting steps - you can skip to the good part... the results. Support the showIf you’re loving the podcast, you’ll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!
