#333 Coming out of Transition in the Off Season

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/10/26

In this episode, written expressly for Spicy Bill, Link, Sally, Roscoe and a few others, we talk about how to train through the winter off season to come back out next spring and be ready for running with the Big Dogs. How to convert the T and Swim-by into mastery of running blinds with marks or without. There are ways to do this without much pressure or confusion. Instead, a methodical approach that works with the way your dog processes and thinks is a pleasant process for you both. Be nice to

#332 Puppy Series #4

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/10/18

In this episode of the ongoing puppy series, we talk about passivity in dog ownership. Very often, people attribute unacceptable or irritating behavior to the dog 'just being a puppy.' When youngsters are allowed to do certain things with no intervention, they are learning that those things are perfectly acceptable. Then later, it often takes more harsh training to undo what was initially taught. So much of later training can be made easier by teaching the pup to problem solve for itself, and how

#331 You're Only as Good a Trainer and Handler as You...

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/10/07

In today's trainer/handler-oriented episode, I share a little personal philosophy about where you are in your dog experience, and why it's likely just where you want it to be. There is no big secret about how to be successful. But the willingness to do what that takes is most often the main issue. It isn't easy to excel at anything. And those who do generally aren't the most talented or most fortunate. It comes down to putting in the time, work and personal humility.

#330 Puppy Series #3

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/09/30

In this third of the new puppy series, we discuss beginning to "read" your dog. How do you learn the inner workings of your new partner? How to you optimize your training program to fit this new little one? How to you learn to adjust what you do to fit this particular dog? It is a fascinating topic if you're willing to think objectively...

#328 Puppy Series #2

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/09/19

Second episode of the Puppy Series, a discussion about what 'love' actually is when it comes to our dogs, and how to develop a dog that is a full team player and excels in its job with you.

#327 New Puppy Series 1

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/09/16

In today's episode, we talk about bringing that new puppy home. Do you have a plan? Do you know what bad habits you want to avoid, and which ones you want to develop? If you back-engineer this from what you want this dog to be as an adult in your life, it can help in your approach to creating that dog. Above all, teaching your dog how love learning is a thing you'll never regret. Listen in for a few ideas....

3325 The Use of the Word No in Training

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/09/10

In today's episode, we break down the real purpose of the word "no" used in so much dog training. It really breaks down to how you view the training process and what your real responsibility is. It is often more a reflection of your thinking, and not so much your dogs'.

#325 2024 Triple Crown Wrap Up

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/09/04

Freshly back from judging the 2024 Triple Crown in Freeman SD, we go over how the Labor Day Weekend went. Setups, upland fields, people, young dogs, old dogs and why this process can be so important on a personal level. It was an amazing experience, and as always, a real privilege to watch the best pointing Labs in the galaxy do their thing.If the sound quality seems different on this, it's because I failed to turn on the microphone and it's just the computer recording. My apologies.

#324 Your Personal Training Philosophy and Its Results

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/08/22

In today's episode, we break down what it actually takes to master this dog training business, and effectively teach your dog what you'd like it to know, as opposed to instructing it as to what actions it must take. Listen in....

#322 Handling Series 2, The Back Pile and Introducing...

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/07/25

Introducing the new Gripe Minute and Applause Minute, in which I discuss things I witness I do not understand, and good things I see that should be passed on. After that, we continue on moving from two piles to a back pile, and the beginnings of the force. It's critically important for your success and your dog's attitude toward training in general, that you understand this from your dog's perspective.

#321 Handling Series: Beginning Pile Work

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/07/08

As promised, following the force fetch process, there is a substantial process through which a dog is taken which results in an enthusiastic and effective handling dog. They can run blind retrieves or be handled successfully on marks, when they really understand what you are asking, and you have their full buy-in. This episode begins with the first step past a good force fetch, the beginning of pile work. Though it may seem trivial to us, for a dog to learn to repeatedly go get something they

#320 The Importance of Canine Fitness

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/07/01

In today's midsummer episode, we discuss what 'fitness' actually means in our dogs, and how to assure the demands you make on your dog will do not do any damage and can be met efficiently. There is a science to creating an animal fully prepared for challenging physical demand, but it takes some awareness, thought and understanding how important fitness is in any athlete.

#319 So You're Running the 2024 Triple Crown?

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/06/25

In today's special episode, we break down all the elements of running the American Pointing Lab National event: The 2024 Triple Crown. What does it require? What type of things should you practice, what will a day look like? Join in a practical discussion about what you will be asked to do, important rules and things to get yourself as ready as possible. It is genuinely a great accomplishment to get to this event with a pointing retriever, and it is the ticket to the APLA Hall of Fame. Listen

#318 Your Dog is a Mirror

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/06/13

In today's fairly personal episode, the discussion covers how all our canines, in their performances and behavior, reflect back what they receive from their partners. They are like the Divine Mechanism helping us to see ourselves. When their performance and behavior is evaluated on this basis, it is both humbling and powerful in reaching the improvement we are looking for.

#317 Training for Effort

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/06/03

In today's episode, we discuss a couple different approaches to training a dog. There is the 'teaching the right motions', the 'make them do it right', the 'repeat it until they get it' and then the one I like, teach them to give their best effort and reward that response. Probably the last one is the hardest, because you have to pay attention the whole time, but it can certainly produce good results. Have a listen....

Training the Pointing Labrador ·

2024/05/31

In today's episode, we discuss the success of localized pointing Lab clubs and how we need to form more of these to help in educating more people about these dogs. Where do you get a good pup, how do you train them with both retrieving and pointing aspects? What should you do with a new pup? How can you meet people to train with, what equipment do you need, how do you get help and how can you get a test in your region? The PL world is expanding rapidly with the quality of dogs and trainers we
