Intro to Equipment: Training Vest (Patreon)

Starting dogs young on the equipment they will eventually wear, or just wearing things in general, is really important. The tough part is that Denver is also really mouthy. So, if I want to introduce the feeling of a vest without him focusing on ripping it off, I need to practice taking it on and off, and then once he's wearing it, immediately give him work to do. So here's Day 5 and 9 of training where I start him with a vest.

Note that the reason I use a different vest for the second part is that it's smaller and less fabric and hangy straps, meaning less for him to see out of the corner of his eye and mess with.
