There are a few things you will need, collars, toys, treats, in order to get the most out of your training. Below is a list of treats, toys or equipment such as leash, collars that I use that will help you be successful in classes.
Please have any equipment ready BEFORE getting your dog out to train.
Treats – Use high value food to help encourage and motivate your dog. Since the treat will be thrown or placed on the floor, use a type of food that will not break apart. Make sure your dog can easily see the treat once it is on the ground. For example, if the ground is a dark color, use a light colored food. I recommend something like Soft Treats
Toys – Use a variety of toys while training. Keep the game interesting and keep your dog guessing throughout your training sessions. I find that a dog will love to tug with toys such as, Flossy Rope Tug
Collars and Leashes – Use any training collar you are currently using while training your dog. If you use something other than a Buckle Dog Collar, please add a buckle collar in addition to what you are using. I use a lot of “hands on” while teaching and training. This makes building drive easier if the dog is willing to pull against their collar.
