My dog is being hyper-active during Agility training. What should I do to calm him down?
mj.slim asked:
I have an 8 1\2 months old Australian Shepherd, he is very friendly to everybody & to other dogs, trained & well-behaved at home. He usually gets 2 long walks and a play with his friends everyday. He is currently attending agility classes 2x a week and a basic obedience course (that makes him 3x a week at Dog School). On trainings, as soon as we enter the training ground, he starts to get wild, he barks a lot (w\c is unusual for him ‘coz he’ s so quiet at home) he jumps on me and is not following the “sit, stay & come” commands (stuff he knows already). I always end up having a short training time with him on the field ‘coz of his behavior. But as soon as we are out of the training ground, he is back to his “well-behaved” attitude. I don’t know what to do or what’s wrong with him. Anybody, pls advice.
