I had purchased the Rig 'em Right dog blind. But then I was worried I wouldn't be able to hide it well from the weary Canadian Honkers. So I deceided to put her in the layout blind with me. It wasn't to hard to train her to stay in the layout.
I basically laid in the layout blind, then had her sit in there with me, and gave her praise. Then threw a bumber, and sent her. I did this a few times. Then next step was to have her sit then lay down. Then praise & a treat. And again send her on a retreive (bumper), a few times. Then the next step is to get in it laying down & close the blind, etc..
With each step, start for a short period of time, and slowly extend it..
There is enough room for both of us, and I have a 80lb heated blanket.. Hope this helps..
