Some people Clicker train their dogs. Alta-Tollhaus dogs are not Clicker trained, they are Shutter trained—Huck is definitely an Alta-Tollhaus dog:
Huck has just made his turn. He’s out at the end of the lead, moving like a pro. I’ve got a few seconds to shoot and he’ll be directly in front of me.

Click—I have him lined up for the perfect shot
Click. “Oh, hey! Are you taking pictures of ME?”
“Seriously. I can pose for you.” Click. It is in their DNA…
This is one of my favorite pictures. Many people admired Huck as he went around the ring.
Lol!!! Those are some great shots Carole! Huck is a gorgeous boy!
That is it! I am sending all my dogs to Margaret for ring training, starting with Gavin, and I confident that Lorie will second that.
I second it !!
Carole, these are fabulous!!! I think the third picture is my favorite: “Oh hey, camera lady! I’m Huck! Don’t mind me, just passing by, about to get some letters added to my name…”
Great pictures Carole….of a very handsome subject.
Too Funny!!! The AT dogs can have a very serious side to them when they need to, but the other times, they can be such clowns. And of course they are always gorgeous!
Haha Julie my doors are open to any AT dog that wants to come run around the farm with Huck and chase geese and play hide and seek in the woods with the horses. If that’s how you ring train, then we’re good to go!
Carole these photos are wonderful. Thanks so much for capturing Huck so well – he is definitely a bit of a ham. Sometimes I feel like he’s winking at me…@Julie
Huck sure is one lucky puppy! Very handsome and like Koda, very mahogany – that’s Julie’s new color for her GSDs, black and mahogany 😉
I love how muscular he is, you can tell that he is out there enjoying life everyday not cooped up in a crate.
Check out all the women in the last pic checkin the stud muffin Huck! Cracks me up. 😀
What a handsome fellow with an awesome character. Matt and I were absolutely amazed at the size and power of Huck. Margaret you’ve done Julie proud. Now you just have to come to some more shows!
Margaret, Huck is absolutely gorgeous, but that personality cracks me up. Hope we get to see lots more pics of him soon!
