Agility with a CSV

Blitzen · 26-07-2010, 11:22

Hello again,

Although I would like to participate in Schutzhund with my future CSV, I know that I will need to find a special dog to do this with, so in case the pup I choose is not so talented in this area, I am keeping an open mind for other sports too. So, I would like to know if anybody has been successful in agility with their CSV, if so, how their training differed from the training of those training, for example, a collie, and how successful they were at it.

Oh and photos or videos would be brilliant!

Thanks!

Hi,

I am also training agility with my CWD(barany), we are going into the 3th season now

He loves the training, and is willing to do al the obstakels, We are stil training on the weave with the channel wire but we have al the 12 poles now in one line. The tyre is stil a little bit difficult.
The only thing we need is some good food and not to many new dogs, by that way we have a very good time training agilty.
And we are going to continue it

greetings Judith

Wow, thanks! Those a great pictures. Is he your dog Mikael? What do you use for motivation - food? toy? praise? I see the dog is playing with a bit of rope in one picture. Is he toy motivated?

Thanks Judith. So you just train with food? Is Barany motivated by a game with a toy as well, or does he just want food? Just trying to get a feel for what turns CSVs on!

hi :-)

i am training my csv for agility..he loves it i also have a collie retired from agility now(we used to compete) altho he has a new lease of life sinse ive been training my csv so might bring him out of retirement.

my csv is very food driven and loves particular toys of his,where as my collie does it for the love of working ,my csv needs to be 'chaneled' but when in the mood adores it

as mentioned before regarding schutzhund csv's can tell the difference between training and real situations,imo im not sure if it is the right sort of work for them...im thinking of working trials as it combines the 3 things my csv enjoys most
