He’s a natural lol
I have a pitbull who loves chasing discs. But the problem is she kills them in 1-2 hours. I have only tried cheap ones for now and now i want to buy a durable one with some good flight time. Any suggestions?
My dog loves her Kong flyer but has trouble picking up the harder discs. She usually squeezes the red Kong from the front and picks it up.
This has led her to not even go after the hyperflight jaws that I got because she can’t pick it up.
Do you all have any tips for training her to pick up the rigid frisbees?
I’ve been tossing a Hyperflite K-10 Jawz with my Vizsla and it’s held up great to his not-so-soft mouth but it tends to kind of drop like a rock instead of floating softly down. Are there any good puncture resistant discs out there that float a little better with short tosses out in the yard? I’ve been looking at the Hero discs but it’s hard to tell which one would be best from the descriptions on their website. Thanks!
My young (1.5 years) mini american shepherd picked this catching thing up quickly. It has been a really good outlet for her need to run around. I am still using the soft Kong flyers. Any advice stepping it up and training other interesting things?
I have a 10 month old Miniture Australian Shepherd, and when my he is older and physically able, I want to train him to be a disc dog, including the vaults and jumps. But I want to make sure that his joints are okay with all the jumping and hitting the ground.
So, what do you all do for your dogs? Are there any specific supplements, or diet changes, or excersices? Is there anything else I should preemptively take care of besides his joints?
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Hi,
Im doing mondioring sport with my mali but I want to do some fun sports aswell just to make the connection between my dog and I better.. But How do I start? I have NO IDEA ! Do I just start with throwing it to my dog or in the air... ? Thanks a lot n advance..
Just ordered some more of my favorite Discs for my disc loving border collie! Did Hyperflite change their product?? Even my dog doesn’t want to chase this new disc! I can tell a big difference in the hardness of the plastic and so can she. Any recommendations as to a substitute disc? Thank you!
Title says it all. Looking for someone else to work with me and Rainbow on tricks!
If he misses a catch, he has no trouble scooping it up or flipping it first if necessary.
But usually at least once per session he gets stuck in this loop where he’ll drop it in front of me instead of delivering it to hand and repeatedly obsessively flipping it over and over with his paws. He’ll get it in the perfect position to pick it up, lightly grab with his mouth, then let go and go back to flipping.
What’s going on here and how can I help him?
