For the last 5 decades, I've owned, trained, and competed with Norwegian elkhounds. Each generation, each individual has taught me, humbled me, and rewarded me. This is Licorice, in the capable hands of Annika Wilson, and Licorice's beautiful litter of 7.

At this moment, I am 7 days post op from ankle surgery. My doctor's plan for me is no weight bearing. My plan is to start Rally classes at the end of January. There's a rally/obedience trial in early March. I wonder how this is going to turn out?

"Do Dogs See Colors? What Does It Mean for Our Training?"
If you work with dogs, these questions matter. Most trainers assume they know the answer; fewer reflect on what it actually implies for practice. I wrote this short article in 2014 and have just revised it. The science remains fully current—and the training implications are as relevant as ever. I hope you find it useful. I would be glad to hear about your experiences with color.
