Our trainer gave us homework: teach Louis to go on a box. Sort of completed now but he is still relying on my body language http://youtu.be/PFfrJ3j2NiU I like this type of exersices as it its fun for both of us and it strengthens communication and develop my teaching skills Ideas for other things to teach him?
Re: Ideas for training excersices I have taught Molly "the finish" After she has come to me from a recall or bringing back her ball. I say "Finish" and she walks behind me and sits by my right. I trained her to do it by initially luring her round with a treat. Then I moved on to pointing round me. Now I just point to my right or just say "Finish" I found it fairly easy to teach. She seems to like it and she winds up in a good position for heel work. Hope you and Louis enjoy trying it.
