Come! Week 2

Let’s keep improving those recalls!

We want FAST recalls! So use this exercise from the Ultimate Recall section to work on getting lightning fast turns and returns.

This next one is a great exercise if you can’t yet take your dog off leash. If you want to practice it on walks or in busier areas that you need to keep your dog closer to you, yet you can still work on the speed of that turn back to you.

Let’s also have some games we can play at home with less room to work on that happiness of the return by using a fun behavior loop to work on our cues. We are going to toss a piece of food away, once the dog eats it, give your come cue, when the dog is moving towards you, cue them to come touch your hand, once they touch your hand mark with a click or “yes” and toss the reward so you can reset the loop. Practice for 5-8 treats.
