But does training ever stop? And at what age do you stop training - in the sense of no longer trying to teach the dog new behaviours?

I'm finding that I'm not that ingenious when it comes to training(!), sticking to the same ole, same ole exercises. I want to ensure that my dog remains fresh and excited and that I don't train her to the point of boredom!

I do try mixing up exercises, but sometimes feel that I'm not that innovative and just wondered what themes your training exercises take and how you mix things up - any suggestions would be gratefully... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (jowebbdog) http://gundogandbirddogforums.yuku.com/topic/3779 Fri, 20 Jun 2008 10:44:17 GMT http://gundogandbirddogforums.yuku.com/topic/3755/t/Dropping-the-dummy-during-retrieve.html feeds@yuku.com (jowebbdog) http://gundogandbirddogforums.yuku.com/topic/3755 Mon, 19 May 2008 09:08:24 GMT http://gundogandbirddogforums.yuku.com/topic/3700/t/Early-blind-retrieves-.html
I have recently been introducing him to short blinds and this is where my trouble has stared.

I know most North American field trialers would be dead set against it.
I am only looking for a useful hunting companion and retrieving my dekes on occassion would be extremely useful.
Would I be ruining the dog by teaching a command for this?
