Help with my lab
I have a one year old lab. Right now I have her where she will listen very well to me. She understands sit, stay, and will retrieve her bumpers and duck on command. I can make her sit and stay and not fetch until released, then she is like lighting getting it and bringing it back to me. My problem is when I take her to the dove field she acts like she's had no training. She will still sit and stay, but will not watch for birds which I understand comes with experience. However when we're out there she won't even retrieve her bumper. I'm taking her by myself so there's not a bunch if action in the field around us. What is causing her to act up when we're in the field?
