Thanks for the warm welcome. I've been having a peak through the forums, and so far so good! Learning a couple things I didn't know, and getting some awesome ideas for my next session. I'm sure I'll love it here.

And yes, I do train my dogs myself. c: I'm a REAL newbie at schutzhund, though, so I have a mentor whose guiding me through it. But I'm the only one who handles and works my pups. My mentor is really training ME, not the dogs at all. Which is generally how it goes, anyway.

c: Thanks for asking.
