Here is a video I put together of Gage during training at the NARA club we are part of. He is 6 months old in the video. He is doing so well. Only issue is the clatter stick. It makes him nervous. So the decoy lent me one and I am working with Gage on learning that the stick touching him is a good thing. By playing tug and gently touching him with it, and petting him with it, and stuff. The first few times i touched him with the clatter stick he let go, but after about 5 to 10 minutes of working on it and petting him with it, and letting him win his tug when he was touched by the stick he is doing better:) We will do this everyday until the stick means nothing to him. He has no problem biting the decoy when he has the stick, he just lets go and re-attackes when he was touched. So hopefully he will over come that pretty quick Enjoy the Video.
