Steadiness training opportunity

I had Moss (Brittany) and Briar (ESS) out for a run this morning, just doing some distance sits, focussing and recalls.  When I let them go for some free running they were soon joined by half a dozen swifts, I imagine their running was putting up insects.  Not wanting to miss the opportunity I sat Moss and has him stay while the swifts flew just past his nose and buzzed close by him in every direction.   The desire to have a go at them was obvious but he managed to resist the temptation, even when I moved to 50 yards away.

The swifts we had used to dive bomb the dogs to make them move.  They are smart cookies these birds!

Well done Moss!  

Tia, (springer) had a thing for house martins but we managed to stop her chasing them.
