Dog Training Boot Camp – Australian Shepherd Enjoy Being Trained at the Beach

The cool thing about the dog training camp that Zach this Australian Shepherd signed up for is that he gets to go out and train for real life situations and learn how real good dog behavior should be.

I have a passion for training working dogs, especially working dogs that are smart. Thats pretty easy to find really, since most dogs have way more capability than people give them credit for.

Zach and one of my dogs went to the beach this morning and had a blast… so did I. It was so great to be able to watch them run, hard… and then come back to me whenever I called them.

Aussie Shepherds are definitely herding dogs so he tried as hard as he could to round up my Weimaraner, but she’s so fast… Zach got a great run in, lets just put it that way.

There were other dogs that came along… all I had to say was “leave it”, “let’s go” and off we went. No yelling, pulling (since there was no leash anyway), or chasing to get the two dogs attention.

I took a friend of mine, and he made the same comment I’ve heard from more than one person in the last week…. how cool it is to watch dogs be able to cut loose and run, watch the pure joy on their faces, the wags of the tail.

It brings a smile no matter what kind of day you’ve had. And that is a very cool thing about a trained dog.
