You don’t need much more but imagination to get your dog working in fun, stimulating and creative ways. You’re not lacking “enrichment” toys. You might just need some imagination! I wanted to teach Rolfinzky how to go through the tunnel on cue and since I like to teach behaviours with “opposites” I also decided to name the touch pad, “pad”. By opposites I mean that if I send the dog AWAY I also want to work on the dog coming BACK in the same session. So here it is: go through the tunnel and get rewarded by a machine or me the come back to the pad and get rewarded there as well.
Maybe it feels pointless? Well, NOT FOR THE DOG.
…and not for me either!
1. Tunnel: confidence building, body awareness, directional awareness and more.
2. The pad: foundation for place training, heel work, body awareness (especially hind legs), send aways and mooore.
So! Time to go through all that all crap you have hidden away and make a fun little course for your dog!
Much love and happy Sunday
