Hi,
We all know how important it is to teach our labradors commands, as a well trained dog makes life easier for the dog itself and for it's owner & infact for everyone.
We have taught Bradley many commands, and have found the most difficult to get him to obey has been the 'come' command. Probably one of the most, if not - the most important commands of all! I think it's important you keep on top of commands, we have been taking treats on every single walk, and practising the 'come' command 7 or 8 times every time. Patience and consistancy pay of though, this morning's walk he scored a perfect 8 /8 with the 'come' command, even when he was quite a distance ahead.
How do you get on with training?
What command or commands have you found the most difficult to maintain or teach your lab?
For those of you who took your lab to puppy/adult classes, do you think it made a big difference?
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.
Thx
Julie
