Video iWoofs 14 Luring a Down

Luring a dog the first time is the most difficult, and there are some tips and tricks you can use to lure a novice dog. Most of the videos we've made recently have featured our dogs, who were already very trained when we made the videos. To see some more examples of trouble shooting, you'll want to watch the SIRIUS® Puppy 1 & Puppy 2 episodes (http://dogstardaily.com/videos/tv/sirius-berkeley-puppy-1). Luring truly is an art form, where you have to adjust your approach according to the nature of the dog your working with. For downs, it can be helpful to lure palm down, or think about how to make the lure as interesting and clear as possible.

That is a brilliant idea! We'll announce it next time we do a recording. It would be great to have a compilation of people luring a down (or a sit, or a stand), that shows many of the ways it can be difficult, especially at first, or around distractions.

another thing you might think about is having youtubers post videos of them luring their puppies/dog for the first time. and either putting them in a compilation or a playlist. just a thought.
