Loved the vids Wayne, Deja is a smart little dog. If my sheltie keeps its eyes on my like that when heeling I will be one happy girl!
And isn't Darby fab, he reminds me of Cadbury so much. Great to see someone doing stuff like that with a terrier as over here they get classified a lot as untrainable
One thing I noticed, which is something I have been guilty of. When your DW was trying to get Darby to go back to a heel position when he didn't do it she got a treat out and lured him. Darby is a bright boy and I think he was holding out for that treat, in fact he was looking up at her and as soon as the treat came out "yep, I know what to do."
She needs to stop asking him to do something and then luring him when he doesn't do it or else he will always hold out for a treat
I did exactly the same with Cadbury and I learnt the hard way!
But otherwise what a fab team you guys make!
