Dog Training Labrador Retriever - bumper boy

This is another drill that I use to teach steadiness in a working competitive hunt test Labrador Retriever by letting him see the picture of you away from him and having to sit through a few launches, and then rewarding him with a retrieve in the opposite direction.

Having the dog maintain a sit away from you gives him a more thorough and complete understanding of 'steadiness'. Launching bumpers closer to him, makes it a bit more difficult than when they are launched much further, but it is good to show him the consistency of command through all forms of obedience to shape his behavior properly.
