(See More @ http://www.DogStarDaily.com/ ) Dr. Ian Dunbar shows how to teach your dog to stand on command. To truly teach your dog position changes, you'll need to work on at least three positions (sit, down & stand)
What if your dog for 2 years had only been trained to sit and down. And now that I'm teaching him to stand, he will just pull his butt from sit position. How can I correct this? thanks!
@ Carmen, okay, because if you notice in this video the dog is lured from beginning to end. Even at the end of the video you can see the guy putting food out and the dog is walking towards it.
So this video is great for starting the "stand" work but not for fading the food. I've asked two trainers about "stand" and neither goes to the next step. Naturally I could look for another trainer but I thought I would ask here.
Fading food prompts & food rewards is another phase in training, just as fading leash jerks and collar "corrections" is. No matter which is your training method, you can become dependent on your motivator (which it sounds like you did) if you don't know how to gradually reduce and replace its use. Find yourself a good, positive trainer to show you the next steps. Ian's lure-reward method seques beautifully to hand signals (no treat in hand), then reducing reward frequency.
My dog gets so eager when food is around that he now thinks "stand" means walk-to-where-the-food-hand-is. He is overly focused on the food and not thinking about what I am trying to communicate. We need to refine the lesson. As he stands I put a foot out and block him so he doesn't move forward.
He did learn "sit," "lie down" and other things quite well, but being on your feet promotes movement. This problem isn't addressed here.
My uncle got a Pug but not a French Pug, well all dogs are special :)
