Post Two: Homework

There is less than two weeks away before Trainer Draw.  That is the day that we pick up our Extreme Mutts and the day our 8 week journey begins.

So, I'm doing homework.  I want to get in as much effective training as possible, so this dog can have some great skills and knowledge going into their adopted home.

Below are the topics that I plan to work on with the EM (Extreme Mutt) and document in this blog through pictures and videos.

Training Topics:

Capturing (ex- capturing a sit)
Targeting (ex- hand touch, circle, weave)
Shaping (ex- lying/settling on a mat)

Eye Contact
Polite Walking
Wait
Adding a Cue (verbal or visual)


Stay Tuned!
