Training SECRET – Balance in training is not a 50/50 split. It constantly changes in each training session or as your dog gains experience.
The balance is between the number of games you add while you train opposed to how much precision you maintain.
Make a conscience effort to maintain a “balance” in all areas of your training.
Pick how many and which games or treats you are going to use and when you will use them. Keep a notebook so that you will not continuously use the same game over and over.
Also, be sure to build and maintain your dog’s focus, attention and desire by randomly releasing your dog with games.
