me … i hadnt heard of them ๐
probably because i cant stand trad ob training.ย ๐ย its not everyones cuppa and i feel it takes the dog out of your dog more than any other “doggie activity” does.
my dog can sit, stay, recall and down because its the law to control them in public but I will never do ob work with him because i just hate it *shudder*.
so – i wouldnt have heard of her from ob, and last time i looked my muttley couldnt qualify for crufts even if i wanted him to so i wouldnt have heard of her from there either …ย for dog training i love Turid Rugaas among others … thats just me ๐

Competitive obedience training doesn’t have to be like this. I do obedience with my two lurchers and believe me, they are all dog in everyday life! They are clicker trained and enjoy doing obedience… it is not a chore and it is nothing to do with “killing” the dog in them!ย ๐
