Clicker retrieve 1

Having a go at a more structured approach to shaping the clicker retrieve. I'm using Helen Phillips tip of using a box or basket to begin with. It seems to work. On previous attempts to shape a pick up, he doesn't move on to the clean lift off the ground as fast or clearly. I still have a problem of Grey freezing (2.29) and there seems no way to get him going again other than to go right back to the beginning.

Nice clicker retrieve videos with a lovely girlie slovak too!

I've looked at some nice clicker retrieve videos and one series in particular is a favourite. also because it features a lovely girlie slovak! Just goes to show that gundogs can learn well from positive methods.


I also liked these videos from the lovely Jessie and her Canadian trainer, which starts the process in reverse. i.e. with a hold first. I seem to have better success with this method.
