Hey Tracy! I am going to video dump on you. Sorry!
I have been training and videoing every session, I just have not been able to get all the videos uploaded. I even got rid of some of the older sessions.
In some of the videos you will see me stop training and just start feeding Stitch and saying yes. That is because there is a dog or distraction and I want to reward Stitch for looking so he starts to get comfortable to dogs in and things in his background environment. Once he gets comfortable we are able to keep training.Here is another session of deceleration and turning. I was able to use the whole floor which was nice. I’m trying to figure out how to use the toy without it flingig out wide when turning. LOL
I ended up using a stick of string cheese towards the end of the video. He is so toy motivated but it just wasnt workking too well.more prop and foot targeting foundation…
On this video students started asking me questions so I decided it was best to pick up Stitch and stop training and start when they were done.
session 2
I tried sending him from me facing the other way. He was funny on this, he was like, this is strange. LOL
Here is our next session of nose targeting.
His nose touches got more profound when I started using the toy. It was cool to see.
on a side note, I am working on pivots with Stitch as well. I am tying to full on shape it instead of putting pressure on him to turn. I have never done it this way and it is super interesteing.
I know this is not part of the class but I wanted to share. This is footage in the raw and the training session was too long…. please put a blind eye to that part.
Howdy!! One last post this morning. Hahaa!!!
DECELERATION AND TURN FOUNDATION
We tried this during class last night. We didn’t have that much room but hopefully you will get to see some good information here.
DECELERATION AND TURN FOUNDATION session 1
FOOT TARGET
Hello again!! LOL
Here are our first 2 sessions of a foot target. Since my box of wine is the size of Stitch, I decided to go with something a little flatter. I had a piece of carpet so I decided to use it. It did slide some so I will add some grippy to the bottom so it will stop sliding. In session 1 I sat on the floor and just rewarded for any type of touching. In session 2, I tried to do it like everyone was doing it in class. Stitch definitely likes movement and toys better with this type of game. He also doesn’t like to be touched too much (papillon). In session 2 I noticed I clicked a little early a couple times so when he got to the mat and I didn’t click he defaulted to a down. I reset and moved closer to the target and that seemed to fix the issue.
