How do you "jackpot" your dog?
This girl loves her food. Toys are just O.K. But if she could crawl into my skin she'd be the happiest puppah on the planet. In fact we've put in a lot of work to get her to grasp that we actually enjoy a little personal space of our own.🙄
So what better "jackpot" reward for an "in your face" dog, than to invite her into my personal space with no restrictions?
What makes your dog tick? How can you incorporate that into a bonding/engagement exercise in your training? What type of mental rubberband do you have that makes your dog voluntarily snap back into a working mindset?
My other dogs would be mortified if I rolled around on the floor with them in public. They have their own preferences. But this girl . . . What can I say? She's a space invader!
