I neglected to get some ones of me working on the Week 3 differences with Dewey and with Explanation.  So I will be inserting videos of Sterling (on purpose this time) or another dog to demonstrate anything that I think you need, but might be lacking in the Week 3 videos that I did take of Dewey.  I forgot how distracted I can get during a lesson, and it's hard to video and explain at the same time. Expect more videos to be added, therefore. Relaxation Exercises: I meant to get you both doing them during the lesson.  So I don't have ones of Sit on The Dog or Behavioral Downs.   Those went pretty good during the lesson though, and you can refer to Week 2 or if I take some of Sterling. Long Place is essentially both an obedience and behavioral exercise at this point: Obedience Exercises: Electronic Collar Work Let's Go and Sit, and Getting Dewey off Long Line:

Sit Reps with the Electronic collar: ***Some or all of these can be done in the above exercise, when the dog is called back to you.   Simply place them in a sit after a "let's go" or "come".   They can also be done as a stand alone. Equipment needed:    Electronic collar, flat or training collar for leash attachment, and long line or 6' leash. STEP 1:  . Make sure you have turned the electronic collar on correctly (use the vibrate button, which on the dogtra is the last button away from the antenna side).   Also make sure the collar was put on tight enough. STEP 2:   Come to a stop from whatever you are doing (walking with the dog or following the dog around).   Be sure that you have access to stepping on the long line fairly close to your dog.   In fact in the beginning, you may want to be stepping on it already. STEP 3:   Issue the command "sit". STEP 3A:   Give them a second.   If they sit within that time, be sure to tell t...

Let's Go command.   So remember let's go means just move towards me.   You can tighten that up as much as you would like to be closer or farther away.   At the very beginning, I like them to come at least six feet from me. STEP 1:  Hold the long line appropriately through the handle STEP 2:  Begin walking your planned path until the dog is not following you anymore and has become distracted or not paying attention to what you are doing STEP 3:  At that point say "Let's Go" or "[Dog's Name] Let's Go" if you prefer. STEP 4A:  If the dog immediately comes towards you say "Good Boy" or "Good Let's Go".   STEP 4B:   If the dog doesn't (wait a couple of seconds to give them a chance, but not too long), use the top button (called the nick button) on the Dogtra collar and tap it repeatedly until the dog turns toward you, and then stop and encourage your dog forward STEP 4C:  If your dog gets confused or stuck with the tapping...

  Behavioral Exercises: Sit on The Dog in More Distractions (light, shadows, Sterling and Shana Close by): Behavioral Downs in more distractions and new environment (Sterling Loose, Mudroom, Shana and Robert in Kitchen on Other Side of Gate): Obedience Commands: Sits First Command and Correction When Needed in More Distractions (using food around light and shadows to start to wean away obsessive behavior): Still Sit Stays in Increased Distractions (Sterling, lights, shadows, dropped leash, walking around the room in increasing circles): Circle Sit Stays  in Increased Distractions (Sterling, lights, shadows, dropped leash, walking around the room in increasing circles): Transitional Leash Work: Let's go (rotated with send to place, duplicate video below in place section): Lured Heeling and Auto Sits: Traditional Heeling and Auto Sits: Attention to Name: Send to Place from Increased Distance and Distraction (rotated with let's go command=move towards me) : Circle ...

  STEP 1:   Your puppy should be on their 6' lead and a collar. STEP 2:    Be sure you are prepared with  kibble in your hand  BEFORE giving a command. STEP 3:   Say your puppy's name. STEP 4A:     Immediately upon your dog looking into your face (and not glancing immediately away), say your release word "yes" and deliver the food reward as you release them. STEP 4B:    If they do not look to you, first try calling their name again.   Give them 10 seconds in between so you aren't just rapidly firing off their name.   If they are just really enamored of something other than you, you could try to gently tug on their leash and see if they will turn.   You could also try to make a silly noise after you say their name.   Usually though, once they know what the deal is with the food reward, it does not take more than three times to get them to look at you. STEP 5:   Repeat from step 2. As you advance, you can...
