Dog Show Tips - Episode 2 - The Free Stack

Show handling tips. In this episode we explore the free stack

[@32zephirine]

Your videos are wonderful. I have a 4 month old Bernese Mountain Dog and I will be showing and handling for the first time. Your tips in 5 minutes have helped more than my weekly conformation classes so thank you!

[@mrstlavery]

Some great information. I would have liked to see you show people how to teach a dog to correct the stack on the rear too.

[@cbcaniche1]

Great videos, Will! So glad you are doing this and sharing on KZbin!

[@Sandy33569]

I'd say teach them to stay..I'm not a pro, but one thing I did with my dog while I was in 4-H was to stack him up, tell him stay, move away, then reward him by staying in stack even if I had hand stacked him. Then I'd start doing the "hard stack" like it is shown in this video, telling him stay, pulling back, and rewarding him. I do hear people with newer show dogs in the ring telling them to stay as they free stack them as well, so I'm sure there's plenty of people who use that.

Great teaching videos! Please.... keep them coming!

[@user-td8kp2ym7h]

Your videos are amazing! I have a three year old border collie mix that I show and I have been looking for some tips on showing. I have only won 1 best in show so far but I'm sure your videos will help us win more! Thanks so much for posting!

[@BuffysBiggestFan]

You are an amazing handler and expert and it's a privilege to have met you and shown along side you! I hope one day to get a spot in your handling class!

[@lindsaytulloch9744]

it would be great to see some videos with working on dogs who arnt trained

[@bonnie448]

Lindsay, it takes hours to get to where this man is, no way could he do a video on that work. Patience, time, repetition. He is giving you the basics. It helps if you can keep the puppy's attention for a short while and work it slowly into more time. NEVER be negative, the dog will look fearful in the ring. Get someone to go over the dog while it stands still, this will help when the judge puts his hands on the dog. Do not forget that male dogs have to have the testicles handled, to see if they are "real" and of about the same size. It is a show for choosing breeding stock! Hope you have fun.

I would like to see the train with basset hound, thanks

[@hillisklan]

Great videos! Would love to see you work with some toy dogs.

[@bonnie448]

Most handlers specialize in only a few breeds. The coated breeds are very different than short haired breeds as well. This man is being very generous with his skills.

[@cityglam2008]

Very good !!!!!!!!

[@gurucharansai3022]

Can you do with the labrador and can you tell me about movement and how to do a dog perfect moment with a labrador can you tell us to understand

[@jinkazama4876]

My dog Great Dane 8 months old always looking down every time we walk how long do you train your dog to stack?

[@reginafalange3110]

Jin Kazama you could try bait to keep the head up

[@Sallyismygoat]

I'm new to dog showing and want to show my Rottweiler when I get her. But I don't know what I need to get, like the show collar, lead, the treats that you use, etc. lots of thank you'd in advance! :)

[@wegahyyti7019]

ArabianHorseChic235 I have a very small dog but my Friends have told me that you need to get candy’s that are easy to swallow for the dog so that they cannot get the treats stuck in their teeth

[@kenedwins3191]

Sir can u show Hw to train a puppy

[@fionacolenso1339]

Both my Pointers aren’t responsive to food. This makes it hard and I’m not really getting anywhere. My Vizsla are responsive.

[@shaun847]

I'm going to try this with throwing treats at her... she does't have problems standing the way i want her to but her head is always at the hight of her shouders (down). A 9mo weim.

[@HorizonFire15]

i would love to know this aswell please

[@suguillo86]

Si alguien pudiera traducir o subtitular esto seria genial

[@tetsujinism]

What breed of this dog?

[@ivanvillajosmanzanedo441]

It's a pointer.

[@wesleyzhang7289]

Handling video on a terriers

[@2311Dheliah]

can you use free stack all the time or is it imposible to use it always. I am not very willing in pulling on my dogs legs. i want him to stand the right way on his self. Its like free stack. But are they standing the correct way, whit all paws in one line?

[@ceairapreuett3308]

you can, and not stack them at all. just you have to "pull" as you called it to train them to free stack

[@brittneylusk842]

If you stack them enough they will soon catch on and every time they see bait they will automatically stack themselves perfectly.

[@2311Dheliah]

Ceaira Preuett i do not wan't to pull but train freely, like obedience training!!!

[@WildeManorCollies]

I show, breed and raise Collies, their a free stacking breed, we hardly ever put our hands on them in the ring, I think it will depend on your breed and how their feet need to be placed, if your dog knows how to place his/her own feet in the correct spot I don't see why not!... but even my trained free stacking collies need me to correct their foot placement from time to time, I try to teach them to re-stack by backing up a bit then stepping forward, or you can take them into a circle and then have them step forward to get into that free stack.

[@gagan11]

Can we use clicker for stacking or will it be a trouble

[@reginafalange3110]

Gagan Josan might be disruptive for a show
