This is a game to play with your dog when training the teeter for agility. It will get the dog used to the noise that the teeter makes when it hits the ground after the dog is running off to his next piece of equipment. This game can also build value for the teeter and make it a fun thing instead of a scary thing. Once the dog gets this game and realizes that the fun is the noise then it makes the teeter that much more reinforcing for the dog. Plus, a lot of ball tossing, food, or reinforcement happens here and that helps make it a stronger behavior.

  • i was just wondering can you start agility training when the dogs just a puppie?

  • @Msashchi I started Twix the minute I brought him home at 11 weeks. I started with foundation behaviors.

  • I tried agility out last weekend for the first time with my collie and we both loved it - the hardest thing was the seesaw so this was a great idea which I'll try next week -thanks!

  • @rombelinski The bang game is just a fun game to teach the dog that the noise the teeter makes is a good rewarding noise. :)

  • Great Pam!  Had to fav it. WIth your new equipment , your vids look 100% better :)

  • @pamelamarxsen Oh okay. Thank you very much for your insight on my question :)

  • Nice work go go go!

  • That was awesome. Thanks for posting this video and taping the video in High Quality. Great job.

  • @pamelamarxsen i totally agree with you. my dog tries to rush through everything anyway, so no use encourging him MORE.

  • thanks so much! i'm trying to train my blue heeler collie X but i'm afraid he'd get upset about that sound. then again, his name is Crash. yeah, i'm serious
