Homework for Group Classes!
Basic Class and Puppy Imprinting Class: Remember to practice only 10-15 min per session, 1-2 times per day.
- Heel to a sit: No more pulling or sniffing while heeling
- Every time you stop, make your dog sit!
- Sit to A Down: Start with small circles around your dog and gradually increase the size of the circle. Try circling the other direction as well.
- Recalls with a Stranger: Have someone hold onto your leash, remember to feed and then run away. Turn around and Recall your dog with his/her name and the command. Back up as he/she is approaching. Have them sit and then feed them and praise simultaneously
Intermediate Class: Practice 10-15 min per session, 1-2 times per day
- Continue practicing your down stays – start increasing, time, distance and distractions
- If your dog breaks the down, it’s the Long Dark Road
- Have fun with your dog and try some obstacles on your walk. Remember, SAFETY is rule number 1!
