Headcollar Session 2 (Patreon)

In this session we're seeing a nice willingness to put nose into head collar, as well as the ability to do different behaviors with the headcollar on.

Things of note:

• Watch how I get several reps with willingness to put head through collar and then use a cookie scatter to clip the headcollar on, as I know that I will be a bit clumsy with this.

• I don't care much about the behaviors he's doing, just that he can follow a lure/do behaviors with the headcollar on. I want him to feel what it feels like to move around with it a bit.

• Notice how I asked for hand touches when he wasn't done chewing and that caused him to not complete the behavior. I was in a rush to not have him think about pawing the head collar, and would have been better served with soft treats instead of his normal kibble.

• 1:52 I do one rep of down but see a tiny interest in fussing with the collar on the way down so decide to move back up into sitting and standing positions as to not encourage any rubbing of the head collar. We can work on down once we've practiced more.

• 2:10 I use a cookie scatter to take the head collar off. The last thing I want is for him to fuss with the head collar and then have me take the headcollar off directly after.
  
  Happy Training!
  
  P.S. look at what a rolly polly he was!
