Lycan made me very proud today. We attended a Barn Hunt Trial and today Lycan achieved the following:

1. Achieved his first Dry Run
2. Achieved Instinct
3. First place in Novice large breed with a 20.19 second run

I am so proud of him as he messed about in the Instinct class by indicating incorrectly and only then finding the correct tube.
In the Novice class he was quick to find the rat, hopped the bale perfectly but then forgot what tunnel is which cost a few seconds.
Overall he did great. Practicing at home with my own Barn filled with bales has really helped.

My Dog Training Institute does offer the foundation of Barn Hunt in our 4 Phase Program.

"Is he a Service Dog?"
I get asked that a lot actually, today again while Lycan accompanied me in a really busy dog friendly place, and I never know quite how to answer.....

Lycan is a Personal Protection Dog so in effect he does provide me a service. I usually just answer "sortof" as I'm not sure how to respond otherwise. He does not behave like the average pet dog either while out in public as it is. He is stable, calm, curious and alert yet very thoughtful, with perfectwork ethic, never leaving my side to follow his own impulses. My perfect working K9.

During our time there today Lycan saw balloons 🎈 flying around in a plastic dome as well as a person dressed as, what I think, was a dalmatian dog. There were children running about squealing and some Dumba$$ pushed his trolley right up Lycan's rear end without any apology. Yet Lycan kept his cool 😎 at that moment, never reacting, as well as our whole time there. He really is bombproof 😍

Anyone wanting his dog to be up at the same level where Lycan is must realize that a lot of commitment, work and time went into how Lycan turned out. If you want your dog to turn out like Lycan, just the Obedience side even, you must be prepared to put in that effort. Too many people believe they can get to this level in 4 weeks, perhaps 4 months. That's not how it works though.

Okay, so I couldn't help myself. I saw this on one of the Barn Hunt pages and couldn't resist. Lycan is posing with all his Barn Hunt achievements. Afterall, he is Trick Trained so I'm taking advantage of this particular Trick of "Grab & Hold".

2x Instinct Achieved (one in 2025 and yesterday's one) and his 1st place Novice large breed class Rosette.

Lycan and I took part in our 2nd Barn Hunt Trial today. We passed the Instinct again, now we have two of those, and, much to my delight, Lycan got us first place in the Novice class for Large breeds. I'm so proud of my boy. We've been practicing really hard and it's paid off. Well done my boy. 🐾❀️

If your dog were to launch an attack on a person would you be able to stop your dog? Would your dog obey and break off his attack?
Untrained dogs are a liability, they have no impulse control and do not know the difference between a real threat and a non threat. Even if you never train your dog in protection work the dog must still have impulse control and be very obedient to you so if they launch an attack they were not supposed to launch, you are able to command them to stop.
My Dog Training Institute focuses a lot on Impulse Control and good Obedience, something every dog should have. I made a video demonstrating how I ask Lycan to abort an attack during a Personal Protection Demonstration we where invited to (Big thanks go out to Michael from Tame the Beast Dog Training).

My clients all learn very quickly that a dog should always wear an escape proof collar when off the property.
But what are exceptions to this? Lycan and I show you in this video.
