Dog Agility Tip – How to train a dog to wrap a jump.
This video will show you how to get your dog to wrap a jump in dog agility in order to make the dogs turn more efficient and faster. By teaching your dog to wrap the jump using a toy, the dog will pay close attention to the handler and be aware of the handlers movement! I will be posting many more videos on dog agility and training tips. All the tricks, behaviors, and training that I do is with the use of a marker such as a clicker, the word “yes” or “yep”. If my dogs do not get it right, they just do not earn a reward. They will have to try again. Dogs repeat what gets rewarded, so most times if they are not getting anything for the wrong behavior they will tend to stop that behavior and do something that works. Good luck with all your training and have fun building your positive connection with your best friend your dog! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

Dog Agility Training Tips – The Bang Game
This is a game to play with your dog when training the teeter for agility. It will get the dog used to the noise that the teeter makes when it hits the ground after the dog is running off to his next piece of equipment. This game can also build value for the teeter and make it a fun thing instead of a scary thing. Once the dog gets this game and realizes that the fun is the noise then it makes the teeter that much more reinforcing for the dog. Plus, a lot of ball tossing, food, or reinforcement happens here and that helps make it a stronger behavior.
