I was pleasantly surprised to find this video in a google/bing search... I a manage couple facebook pages and one is for bloodhounds and we have many people wanting to know how to stack a dog... (though your video was not a bloodhound, it is a very good overall video)... thanks for taking the time to do it... would love you to use a bloodhound for another example...
Hi, would appreciate if you could upload some videos of Miss P, the best beagle I have ever seen. How many puppies of her are in dog show now? thank you
It's hard to know without seeing. Possibly putting the hind feet too far back, Possibly not having the head in the correct position (not level, too high, etc.) My advice sight unseen would be to just try doing something differently with how you are holding the head. Find a mirror that will help alot. Best of luck.
@@MsMutt1 Hello! Can't believe it has been 3years since I posted this question! We went to conformation classes and she did great! She stacks amazingly now, free stacks are even better. Thank you!
I am also facing the same problem with golden retriever 6months old puppy. Really desperate to learn that how to make my puppy confident and not to cringe or lean towards backside. Kindly help. Thank you
Question, and I know this might be controversial, but can you practice stacking on a mix breed if your planning on getting a purebred later in life and want to get the hang of the basic of show handling before you get the purebred? Like I’d never in my life try and show my mutt at a dog show, however I want to get into it when I can afford a well bred dog and currently only have mutts, so I thought practicing show handling on them so I can get the basics down wouldn’t hurt, but I wanted a second opinion from the dog community because I honestly have no idea if it’s seen as defiling confirmation or if it was ok since I never plan to actually show them I just want to practice stacking for when I have a show quality purebred I can show
I think you would be fine But the dog would have to have some sort of confirmation That looks like a certain breed so that you could show in practice with What the breed would look like Because if he had a German shepherd You would want to stack it with 1' in but if you had a golden you would want to stack with the hawks up-and-down and slightly figure on the outside But just a practice I think you would be fine
Of course you can! And that's a great idea. I've stacked kittens, lambs, and even a duck 🤣🤣 just for fun. Use whatever you have to practise with, no matter how silly it sounds to others. The important thing is that you are getting a feel for it and having fun at the same time.
One way to help with that is to practice on a table or wide ledge and put his hind feet on the edge. When he leans back, let him "fall off" a little bit. Then reset him and bait him forward. When he moves his weight over his front, make a big fuss, praise and reward him.
