Retrieve Training Course

This is a 9-week course hosted by Joe Wapenski. In this course, we follow a systematic approach to teaching a practical retrieve for test or hunting scenarios, building a strong foundation of learning from the very beginning. There is a strong emphasis on practical training for young dogs that have not yet had specific retrieve training (with a demo dog that hasn’t yet mastered all the skills). We also cover dog training theory; rationale for each step in the process is discussed so you not only know what to do but why you are doing it. The purpose is to train you as the trainer on how to teach your dog, give you the knowledge you need to respond to your dog in the moment, and to provide a guide for successfully training a polished retrieve.

This course is intended for handlers who are new to the trained retrieve or experienced handlers looking to expand their knowledge and learn some techniques that are particularly well-suited to the temperament of the DL.

Syllabus:
Class 1: Introduction, Prerequisites, and Necessary Tools
Class 2: Reaching, Grabbing, and Holding through Shaping and Marking
Class 3: Increasing the Hold and working with the Leash
Class 4: Picking Up, Walking, and E-Collar Overlay
Class 5: Moving Off the Table, Introducing Command Words
Class 6: Adding Variety, Game Animals, and Retrieve Drills
Class 7: Polishing Steps and Generalization
Class 8: Drills for the Completed Retrieve
Class 9: Conclusion, Planning for Advanced Retrieving Concepts
