My dog Dutches Millie and me watching Tarzan Ot Vitosha at the FMBB world championships in Romania.
If you are a dog sports fan you can watch it live at FMBB2026.de
You can also find the schedule and standings there.
They have almost all competitive dog sports there. From agility to IGP, Bikejoerking and Mondioring.
Romania is 8h ahead of us, so part of the live performance is transmitted at night here in the US!

This video breaks down what an e-collar actually is and more importantly, how learning works when it matters most.
You’ll see a live self-demo so you understand exactly what the stimulation feels like, and why control, timing, and contingency matter more than the tool itself.
Some dogs do very well with positive reinforcement alone.
But if you’ve been training for months or years and your dog is still not reliable when it counts… especially with behaviors like poor recall, chasing, or high drive in real environments, then this video is for you.
This is not about replacing reinforcement!
It’s about understanding what happens when reinforcement no longer competes with reality.
What you’ll see:
What the e-collar really does (and what it doesn’t). Why “aversive” does not mean harm. How clear, immediate, avoidable consequences create understanding. Why avoidance is not the same as living in fear. Where redirection works and where it doesn’t.
At some point, every training system is tested the same way:
What happens when the dog is already committed?
That’s what this talk is about.

Dutches Millie loves running. That why we do it! She even corners rabbits in the yard. Does she gets them? No! Not a kill drive there! Stubs them with her nose, so they keep running and she can keep chasing 😳🥹😂!
The ribbons are for mom driving all over the country to let her do her sport 😂!

🇩🇪 Es ist passiert. Und wir können es kaum glauben.
Der Verfassungsgerichtshof hat das Verbot des Gebrauchshundesports in Österreich aufgehoben.
Das Erkenntnis vom 17. März 2026 ist eindeutig: Die Verordnung war gesetzwidrig. Sie ist weg.
Ein Sport, der seit Jahrzehnten besteht.
Der Hunde fordert, bindet und erfüllt.
Der Zucht sichert.
Der Wissen erhält.
Der Teams formt.
Und der plötzlich verboten wurde – ohne ausreichende gesetzliche Grundlage.
Viele hätten aufgeben können.
Haben sie nicht.
Sie sind geblieben.
Haben trainiert, diskutiert, aufgeklärt.
Und gekämpft.
Heute ist klar: Es hat sich gelohnt.
Der Gebrauchshundesport ist zurück. Legal. In Österreich.
Die Community ist wieder komplett.
Eine Community. Weltweit.
Verbunden durch unsere Hunde, unseren Sport und unsere Werte.
Mit Botschaftern rund um den Globus steht K9andSports genau für das:
One Community.

Willkommen zurück auf dem Hundeplatz.
Hier der Link zum Urteil:

🇺🇸 It happened. And we can hardly believe it.
The Constitutional Court has overturned the ban on working dog sports in Austria.
The ruling of March 17, 2026 is clear: the regulation was unlawful. It’s gone.
A sport lived for decades.
One that challenges dogs, builds bonds, and fulfills them.
That protects breeding standards.
That preserves knowledge.
That builds real teams.
And suddenly it was banned – without proper legal basis.
Many could have walked away.
They didn’t.
They stayed.
They trained, spoke up, educated.
And they fought.
Today, it’s clear: it was worth it.
Working dog sport is back. Legal. In Austria.
The community is whole again.
One community. Worldwide.
Connected by our dogs, our sport, and our values.
With ambassadors across the globe, this is exactly what K9andSports stands for:
One Community.

Welcome back to the training field.
