Boxers in Training

Boomer is coming along in his obedience exercises. Boomer and his handler Luis are getting ready for Boomer's BH trial. His moving exercises are both equally fast and correct. Boomer's down under distraction is getting more and more solid as he practices it more. At this time, Boomer is also learning the retrieves on flat and over the jump and wall. Boomer has resently learned the send out and is pretty fast on both the send out and the down command at the end of the sendout.


Sammy is coming along very nicely, her attention is just very good in the heeling part of obedience. The motion exercises are solid both the sit out of motion and the down out of motion. The retrieves are solid both on flat and over the jump and the wall. Sammy is working on the send out and that is coming out nicely too. The down under distraction is still a bit tricky for her but she is working on it and is getting better.

Thor continues to prepare for his upcoming performance trial. Performing the exercises and working on attention which is coming along very well. The motion exercises are correct and precise. The retrieves on flat and over the jump and wall are also correct and precise. The send out is very fast and the down is very fast and good. Attention is still a bit tricky, boxers like to know what is going on around them, but he is working on it and is getting better at it.



Soon all 3 Miludee Boxers will be competing and will be cheered on by one of their coaches Tygger, who has been participating in their training since they all arrived at Miludee Boxers. Tygger is now retired but continues to exercise and teach the pups how to prepare for the competitions to come.
