Smiley, that was a great post. You can train at home, hire a helper later, when you find one. But I agree with you...one of the things I have seen at sch clubs is that there is ONE method and ONE method only for "training" dogs. They work the dogs like they are on an assembly line. One so called trainer even works his subjects in rote; produced dogs with conflict and looking like they have a cob up their ass as soon as they step on the field. Try to convince a person with that mentality that each dog is individual and one method does not fit every dog. To most td's at clubs, every dog should be primarily prey oriented or they are rejected as they are not capable of being trained with the only method known to those "trainers". 
I built my own wall and hurdle nine years ago, paid helpers to come to my field once a week, twice a week when getting within a month of trial. Took my dogs to club to proof them, but trained them at home myself.
Titled three dogs within a year of starting training, all three within two months, traveling to three different states to trials, and three very different type dogs. Put shc1 on my WLL male first, then one week later, put sch 1 on my female. Three weeks after putting sch 1 on my female, I took her and my GSL male to another trial, put the sch 2 on my female and same day I put the sch 1 on my SL male.

Hey Midgie 1007, 
You're at it again now that they've put the dislikes back up.  You got a problem with me?
 You want to "dislike" my posts again why don't you have the balls to explain why?
 I suppose you will be bringing your little buddy in on the" dislike fairy" game.
 She'll probably be smarter than you and won't  follow you in your childishness.  

Midgie1007 , you just don't get it do you?

Thank you, Midgie 1007, you are among the "dislike-fairy badge of honor" folks. :-)

The likes/dislikes are no longer anonymous. I suspect there will be a lot less dislikes now.

hey blitz guess who 

 

sorry thought that wa funny, promise to lick, like you later.

So, I assume only moderators or admin. can see who liked or disliked a post?

Lol. Sunny, although Midgie1007 is a dislike-fairy, she evedently has no insight as to the workings of this new and Improved forum.
Just click on the like or dislike to see who didit. I imagine that now she knows she can't anonymously do her childish stuff, she may not be so "active" and will flutter off into the darkness. :-)

Joan, clicking on the like/dislike counter gets me nothing. Then I spotted a new menu item in the column on the left side of the page, titled liked/disliked posts. Click on that, and it gives you the last 20 likes and dislikes, but does not say who made them.

Maybe it has to be your own post in order for you to see the info?

No, wait, I can see who it was now, but I couldn't last night!

Guess Oli is still fine-tuning it...

Vk, why did you dislike my post? Lol
