www.sitmeanssit.com In protection dog training, some people like their dogs to push into the bite, yet others like them to pull. This gets into all aspects of the dog’s behavior and his habits. In this daily dog training video, we show how if you are someone like myself that likes the dog to push, then we try to implement that behavior into other activities that the dog probably gets in a lot more repetitions of then his daily bitework. Protection training might take multiple people involved in most instances, yet you may get dozens of repetitions in of the dog playing with something else out of your hand like a ball or a tug. I personally like to implement the habit of him pushing into all of his daily activities that involve grabbing or biting, so that the habit becomes more intact, and that it is more easily enforced in the bitework. You see in this video 3 of our trainers all heeling with a ball, although a tug or any other training aid could be used, and that the dog is not tugging, but rather moving forward with us while we are using it. Please leave your opinions and comments on the matter as well.
