How To Train Your Dog: Advanced Targeting/Head Movement

TOO EASY? TRY THIS!

This tutorial is for those trainers who have worked up a good repertoire of behaviors with their dogs. If you want to make this even more challenging, I highly recommend adding MORE behaviors to the chain demonstrated in this video. Here is a sample chain of behaviors I would suggest:

Hold it....Drop it....Target...Down....Stand....Down...Target....Watch me...Sit....Hold it...Bring it...Drop it...Watch me....Sit.

If you can complete the above chain perfectly (giving each cue only once), you are demonstrating an INCREDIBLE connection with your dog and an extremely solid understanding of cues. Good job!

I would love to see a video of someone demonstrating this chain. Please post it as a video response when you complete it! All the best!

Nice! I have a standard poodle service dog and want to train her to go and get my mom for me, any help? Also clickers are to much on my hand, any suggestions ?

@DoodlesCatters You can use a word like "yes" but you must do it consistently and not overuse it when not teaching something specific.

A great tutorial. You've been away a while now, glad to see you're back again. Keep up the good work!

Teach your dog to target specific a scent? Hehehehe, I definitely know what I'm gonna teach him to look for.

@FranciscoSkateboards Check labels in in specialty stores. You have have organic dry dood that says organic natural flavours, but it is just organic sourced msg, it still causes lesions on the brain. Expensive fancy foods can still use gluten. Vets sell food with gluten, it is a shameful practice. It is very dangerous for cats, but vets will still sell it. Training with spice/garlic/onion free meat is awesome, just feeding real food is awesome. They did not evolve on dehydrated kibble.

@FranciscoSkateboards lol, it is just bad that you feed pedigree/purina. Both use animal/meat by product which's anything from road kill to dead cats & dogs. They contain an ingredient labelled natural flavours, which is MSG hidden in things like hydrolysed protein/veg isolates, brewers yeast. They've gluten in them which destroys stomach shags& can cause diabetes. Be an ingredient watcher, protect your dogs health. In my area I buy Acana/Origin they use freerange meat or I make it myself.

how old is your dog?

I love your videos, they are very informative and make dog training so much easier and enjoyable. Problem with my german shepherd: when we ride in the car to go to the park to run, he is too excited, jumps around and barks incessantly. I would love to see you do a video on this issue! Thanks again, I'm a big fan.
