My feeling is that you need to go out and run some 15 minute old 1000 yard unknown tracks. dog soldiers Dog-barking-control. If the dog can run these, or if you are adept enough to read him as he tracks and you find the track layer on "ALL" of the tracks then you are good to go at lengthening the distance first and then the time. You are going to have to build the dog (and your) endurance). The only way that is possible is to run tracks. dog soldiers Maltese-puppies-for-sale. If you have a problem on these short unknown tracks, then you need to go back and start to dog know tracks. When satisfied with the known track, then have 2 people lay a unknown track, then have one of them stay at the end and the second one runs the track with you to help you when you screw up. The biggest thing with this system is to learn to read your dog. dog soldiers Dog-rescues. This is not learned on known tracks it is almost exclusively learned on unknown tracks. That's where the confidence comes from. I tell the guys I train with that is they can't consistently find me when I drive out in the country and leave my car on a county road and run a mile, then they have no business accepting call outs on tracking. You will find that the answer to your question is mostly common sense when you start to test the dog and look at the training steps that I have laid out in the video on Level One Country Tracking. You also must be prepared for the fact that your dog may not be able to do this. If he has been forced tracked in Europe this can be a problem. Also if you have done too much area search and building search work with the dog he has learned to locate people with his head held high. It is very difficult to get these dogs to learn to put their noses back down on the ground after they learn to area search, but if they learn to track first then That's what they always resort back to. Good luck, it is a lot of fun. To TopQUESTION:Dear Ed,Does the Level 2 and 3 video teach the method of getting the dog to circle at the end of a dead track and then backtrack to locate the turn? I was impressed with the dogs on the Level 1 video. My dog gets to the end of a track or a turn, and may overshoot it but then I have to more or less bring him back a way and slow him down to catch the turn. Sometimes he catches it on his own. Is there a method that I can use to teach him?ANSWER:You need to watch the Level 1 video a few more times and take notes. This circling is sometimes done naturally by the dog but most often it is leash handling by the handler. The dog needs to give a negative by the length of a leash past a turn or a dead end.
