If you want t have this much trust in your dogs, let them be a dog more ☺️ When you can give your dog more enrichment for the brain instead of throw a ball or walk A to B and back to A again you will see a much more fulfilled dog. Think of the breed you have, think of the specific enrichment that would suit their needs. When you can let your dog be a dog more and interact with them more you will see your relationship between each other flourish ☺️🐾 #dogtraining #letyourdogbeadog #enrichment #germanshepherd #support #collie #bonding
This is a little demonstration on your marker words when taught correctly, self control, engaging in play and knowing when to stop and also keeping motivation.
No need for fancy captions here, just have a read and watch the video ☺️.
At the start you can see I release them into play with me with a Yes, then my Stop is stop what your doing, I throw away the rope and go back into training again, this keeps your dog motivated by building in playtime along with your training.
I’ve then put both of them in a down and told them to wait while I place a reward on the ground, I wait for eye contact before releasing them for their reward.
All of this can be achieved with consistency and breaking down piece by piece so they can learn.
Remember we learn a lot quicker so being consistent and understand can be a big help when teaching your dog something. Take your time, have patience and it will come, if you ever feel frustrated go away and have a cuppa and come back and try again 🙏🏻☺️🐾
