The reality is, in most dog sports 70% of your time is spent waiting for the judges direction, moving to the start of an exercise, etc. Relatively little time is spent with the dog doing work. Have you trained the dog for this reality of a lot of waiting and relatively little doing? This live talks about my thoughts with my own dog, and how I plan to start working on this for our team.
