1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 2: Well, while you're watching Married at First Site last night 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 2: I said to Harlee do you want to watch Married 4 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 2: at First Sight? And he said, I'd rather get a bowler, 5 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 2: So I thought, well, that's what special k a bowler hat. 6 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 2: I thought, well, let's watch something else. So I'm up 7 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 2: to episode four of Muster Dogs is one water Go. 8 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: It may already be available on ABC iView. I don't know, 9 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 2: but don't tell me what happens. Remember we spoke to Zoey. 10 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 2: Zoe is a young mustro who works in the Northern Territory. 11 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: She's got her little pup, Buddy, and last week or 12 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 2: the episode I saw, Buddy was unwell and Buddy has survived. 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 2: But will Buddy be ready for the final judgment? Because 14 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: what happens is there's five Border Collie pups that have 15 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 2: been bred to be great mustard dogs. You can see 16 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 2: from the minute they hit the ground they're chasing animals. 17 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: They're amazing. 18 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: They really instinct is extraordinary. These five pups went to 19 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: five different stock handlers musterers around the country, all different 20 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: kinds of climates, and they've every few months been assessed 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: on how the dog training is going. At twelve months, 22 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: so in the final episode we see who is the 23 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: best mustard dog of the five of them. But last 24 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: night's episode that I saw the dogs are ten months 25 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: old and they're all extraordinary and have bonded hugely with 26 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: their owners. But ten months is the teenager time for 27 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 2: a border collie. So someone mucking up a little. But 28 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: this is what last night they are being assessed on. 29 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: The first challenge is knowing its place in the pack. 30 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 3: By now, the pup should be starting to show respect 31 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 3: for you and also respect for the rest of the 32 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: dogs in the pack. She don't want your dogs squabbling 33 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 3: with one another either, and you want the young pup 34 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: to enjoy working with the old dogs, the old dogs 35 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 3: to enjoy having the pup with them, and therefore you'll 36 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: get a better effect over your livestock in the long run. 37 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: The second task is to demonstrate restraint by not jumping 38 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: onto a bike without a command. 39 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 3: Originally, you want to be able to train you or 40 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 3: teach your dog to get on a motorbike, but then 41 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 3: the next step is to have them so that they 42 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: just don't indiscriminately go and hop on a bike whenever 43 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 3: they feel like it. Hop on pup really should know 44 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 3: not to get on the motorbike or the haybale, whatever 45 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: the case may be, without being asked. 46 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: Staying calm and resisting distractions, no matter how tempting they 47 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: might be, is the next challenge your five pups need 48 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: to conquer. 49 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: This task is a barometer for how well your bluetooth 50 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 3: is established with your dog. For example, when you're mustering 51 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 3: a mob a livestock in the paddock and a kangaroo 52 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 3: jumps out, you don't want your dog to chase the kangaroo. 53 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 3: You want it to stay focused on the job at hand. 54 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: But with testosterone in the air, bad behavior cannot be ignored. 55 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 4: A lot of people say to me, I don't have 56 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 4: time to train a dog. I actually think that's an 57 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 4: excuse for lack of commitments and dedication and having enough passion. 58 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 4: So a lot of it is not letting bad habits 59 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 4: set in, and then you're not having to have to 60 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 4: spin those hours addressing those problems. 61 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: When they talk about the bluetooth connection, they don't mean 62 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: that you're wired up to your dog. It is that 63 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 2: invisible connection that you have to establish with your dog. 64 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 2: So if it's running around of an outback paddock. It's 65 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: always thinking what are you thinking? 66 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: Right? 67 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: Fascinating? 68 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: It is fascinating, But you know, it's not too disimilar 69 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 3: to married at first sight, like if you put it 70 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: under that PreO. 71 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of lessons that I think the 72 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 2: people who are married at first sight can learn from 73 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: the mustard dogs. 74 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 3: What if we put them together? 75 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: The first challenge is knowing its place in the pack. 76 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: The second task is to demonstrate restraint by not jumping 77 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: onto a bike without a command. 78 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: Well, I look like the girl next door, but I 79 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: like to see myself actually as a little freaking the sheets. 80 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: Staying calm and resisting distractions, no matter how tempting they 81 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: might be, is the next challenge. Your five pups need 82 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: to conquer. Swear it. But with testosterone in the air, 83 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: bad behavior cannot be ignored. You mean a conversation right now, 84 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: Come out here and talk to come out here, hero. 85 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 2: Get the dog trainers onto them, seriously, whack on the nose.
