Someone got a little too excited shopping for his @openfarmpet favorites this morning and decided to put himself IN the cart with them 😆

And it’s also important to teach your dog a protocol for when they have no choice in the matter!

And make sure it’s worth your dog’s while with a good snack like the @openfarmpet cod sticks! #openfarmpartner

The teeter has a lot more going on with it than any other agility obstacle due to its motion and the sound it can make. This is why teaching and proofing the picture you want of the teeter before ever asking your dog to step on the board can be incredibly powerful! This clarity, paired with at-home unpredictable movement exercises, can in turn be super helpful for building future teeter confidence.

So that’s exactly what we will do over these three weeks!

We will begin by teaching a nose target to a small object on the flat. From there, we will go through various proofing methods to make sure the target is fully independent. Then we will take that nose target and add it to any raised surface, once again proofing the nose target on the raised surface. (This can be anything your dog can stand comfortably on.) And finally, we will fade the nose target to a small flat object that is ready to be added to a teeter and extremely easy to fade out once added.

At the same time, we will be working on confidence building exercises for the motion and sound aspects of the teeter via several different games.

By the end of the three weeks, you will have a full teeter performance that is fully proofed without ever having set foot on a teeter!

For those who do have access to a teeter, there will also be optional lecture at the end of class discussing how to transfer your full teeter behavior to an actual teeter. But this piece will be fully optional!

Beyond The Board: Teeter Training (No Teeter Required!) with @fivebyfivecanine 3-week class begins online September 1st! Classes registration link in bio.

Does your puppy or teenage dog ever get so worked up and no what what you do, you can’t seem to figure out what they need?

What do you do when you notice your dog is tolerating something vs. actually okay with it? #ad

Is a mouthy puppy always a playful puppy?

Here’s when he finally got the courage to check it out!

Note: this does not mean that you should necessarily follow this exact protocol for something your dog is afraid of! Always depends on the specific dog and senario to know if this would be an appropriate approach! If a dog is feeling aggressive for instance or showing fear-aggression, this can cause more tension or conflict instead. (This is particularly true for if the thing they are afraid of is a living animal/person)

Do you ever notice your dog offering appeasement or stress signals if you stare at them for too long?

Respecting and acknowledging that your dog is communicating to you, even if you can’t currently do what they’re asking, is so important! It can build up trust and a much stronger general bond when your dog knows you understand them, even if the answer is “not right now”

Licking can actually mean a number of things, including asking you to move away or stop doing something!
