    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

    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?

    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.
