Bob Manning, I'm with BC...there is a TON of good reading in just one paragraph you posted!
I want to just broach a couple of the subjects,Of The Many in your reply.

For PP (only),I respectfully AGREE with you there!Also,the way you described starting the k9 & your brief explanation of The Masterful art of BAlance..is EXACTLY how the author of my K9 "BIBLE"...Mr.Jay Rapp set forth......my nose has been in this book since I found it in 1981 in school library...he updated it in 1985.I can recite most words from memory.
"How to organize a canine unit and train Dogs for police work" published may, 1985
My whole family has always owned dogs.....BUT I've been applying these (Mr.Rapp)to my pooches,my brothers dogs,friends dogs,family and others as long as.
Thank you for your reply
