LANGTON INTERMEDIATES ROCK

Never in my two and a half years have I seen so many dogs transformed in less than two weeks. The hard work put in by the inters at Church Langton was so evident that last night was by the the best nights training I have enjoyed since the club started in Harborough.

On Tuesday a similar transformation was achieved by the Oadby Inters.

It is worth bearing in mind that most dogs will always behave and perform  better at home and the dogs with the greatest potential will often be the worst behaved. All that is required is time and patience and of course hard work.

Two more weeks left for the inters and we look forward to everyone moving into the Friday night Intermediate two class or Thursday at Church Langton.

ALL IN ALL A VERY SATISFYING WEEK. WELL DONE!!!

Absolutely fabulous Maria and Maisie Church Langton Beginners

This week saw the last of the beginner sessions at the Langtons venue. Maisie came to us 7 weeks ago and could not walk on the floor let alone take part in training.  three weeks later she started to grow in confidence which left her with just three weeks remaining on the course. Last Thursday on the last night Maisie was in the middle of doing heel work when she suddenly stopped. Rather than continue I asked Maria to leave her, call and stop her after one step. Maisie obliged. She went on to do a stand stay, down stay, having refused to lie down before, greeting test, heel work, recall etc to earn the foundation certificate in but ten minutes of work. Maria is to join the intermediate group on 12th April and ordinarily would not have started any work towards the Foundation certificate until then . Yes of course she made mistakes but at 7 months of age and having such a difficult start what Maria and Maisie have achieved was a first in Bertie history and Maria must take full credit for being able to take advantage of this opportunity. Below is a short video of them working.

Many members have heard me say that learning to read your dogs body language is far more important than listening to me and this point was proved here.

FAO Church Langton Beginner and Intermediates re Kennel Cough

Hi

as advised previously the beginner talk is to be brought forward for this week and and the Intermediates will not run this week. If your dog has contracted kennel cough please ensure that prior to coming to the club that you  avoid  close contact with your dog or change immediately before leaving to avoid carrying the virus. Generally the virus cannot survive on leaving th host animal but in rare cases it does not die instantly. Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

If anyone in the intermediates wishes to attend the course you wold be welcome. We will advise about any enforced closures next week.
