How to train a dog: Weaving Though Legs

WIDESCREEN!!! This is a quick video tutorial on how to teach weaving through the legs using luring or shaping.

Einstein demos how fast a dog can pick this trick up. The footage is almost in real time.

This exercise is great for building a shy dogs confidence. However, take it slow, some dogs might go through your legs on the first try, others might take a week to initially feel relaxed going between your legs. I know a chihuahua in particular that was very nervous of going through her owners legs. Take it slow and dont get frustrated!

Tips:
Make sure to fade out the treat very quickly. The rule is usually- use the treat the first 3 times and then pretend to have a treat, to having an obviously empty hand

Raise criteria constantly or you will get stuck with a dog that needs a treat after each leg pass

Have fun and enjoy!

Dont forget to post a video response of your dog weaving! Also dont be shy! Show of the awesome weave that your dog can already do!

I am a really short person, and my dog is about as high as my hips. I think she feels intimidated by going between my legs. she absolutely won't allow it. I can't even lure her through. Any tips?

Check out the video 'Dog Training Super Stars in Spain' and at 3.13 you can see for a couple of seconds my friend Emi with Meghan doing a version of weaving where she lifts her leg up high as the dog goes under it. This looks really cool and can be used for extra tall dogs and fearful dogs.

I used to have a lhasa mix I taught to do this myself, he was a pro. But my new puppy can't do it! Help! she seems like she was abused when she was little and is so shy of doing threw my legs like I'm going to hit her or something. Shes a boston/rat mix. How can I get her to not be so shy? I've had her since she was 3 and a half months, now shes nine months. I work w/her a lot.

@MrKh76 because the clicker tells them well done you have won a treat

[vidgirl4444]

would they get mixed up if you say WEAVE and when you take them to agility class and say WEAVE?

[MrKh76]

why use a clicker when you have treats aswell? Great vids :)

you should reward your dog with your opposite hand, not the head your lured him with.
