Frustrated with sour training stock? In this video series Jeff Christiansen shows a drill he uses to help maintain his sheep so they don’t always run to the handler while he is working his dogs. Jeff shows two dogs working this drill and explains:
- How to position yourself in a way that makes it easier to initiate the stock getting away from the handler.
- Why it is important not to just hold the sheep away statically but keep the sheep moving.
- The amazing benefits to the dog as it learns proper position in order to accomplish this drill.
- Getting the dog accustom to pushing back on the pressure of the sheep by using a barrier.
- How this exercise develops a dog’s ability to maintain control of the lead and rear of the stock.
- What to expect if you have a dog that works too much at the front or too much at the back.
- …and much more!
