TEACHING & DESIRE LEFT ABOUT TURN
- Have your dog on your left side. No sit, just play and GO!
- Take a few steps forward in slow motion, and then start to execute the LEFT ABOUT turn using leash reining to ensure great REA.
- When teaching, release your dog at different points in the about turn to keep the dog guessing and build desire for the dog to keep his head up throughout the turn.
- If your dog loses focus or drops his head during the turn, reward MORE OFTEN IN the turn.
- Make sure the dog is looking up and watching you at all times when making the turn.
- ALWAYS play and interact with the dog before trying the repetition again.
- Watch for your dog dropping the head to drive around the turn. Release earlier in the turn and/or give slight reining motions upwards to keep the dog’s head up and/or maintain the visible treat as above to keep dog’s head up.
