| Whistle Drill |
In this training drill Tee MUST SIT
bumpers..So the challenge is to
have her sit when and were you
want...I like to vary the length and
tone of the whistle..She is close so
you don't need a loud drawn out
tone..BUT to stop her very close to
the bumper I use a sharp loud In
this training drill Tee MUST SIT
tone..To bring her in VERY on the
whistle tone..She loves to on the
whistle tone..She loves to
bumpers..So the challenge is to
have her sit when and were you
want...I like to vary the length and
tone of the whistle..She is close so
you don't need a loud drawn out
tone..BUT to stop her very close to
the bumper I use a sharp loud
tone..To bring her in VERY
SLOWLY...or just to turn her I drag
a low whistle..This works very well
distiances..When the target is very
close left or right or if she over ran
target..You can't always use a toot
toot..At a long distance the sound
toot..At a long distance the sound
takes to long to get there...she
could move 20' before she hears
the stop whistle...If you practice
you can have her walk very slowly
to the target as you whistle and
move her with your body and hand
movement..Plus if you need to
stop her, all the come in whistles
blend in with the stop whistle at
long distances

I use a single tone for sit ( TOOT)and
a double tone (TOOT-TOOT) for the
come in and stop blowing..I use the
double tone for the come in because
if the dog is coming in why blow
anymore..It is just like saying HERE
HERE over and over when the dog is
running back to you...Plus you cant
really slowly finesse a dogs
movements with a series of direct
tones ( Most dogs will move too
rapidly)

| Water Work |
Siting on the whistle in
water...Use the same whistle
tone as on land...TAKE YOUR
TIME...Tee does not like to tread
water so I make her do it with
the stop whistle..If she moves to
swim after the bumper before I
give her the hand signal..I stop
her and nick at same time..If she
takes the wrong cast I stop her..

bumper to the left..DO NOT
HESITATE...If she makes the
slights wrong movement
stop her..( The collar was

corrections to keep her on
