Hey Folks!

For those that are following along with my first foray into competition obedience, here's the exercises we worked on for week 2 and 3!

Reminder to film your training ;)

This is all SO impressive!! It’s phenomenal what you’re able to fit into this one session by keeping any one set of reps very short, and breaking things up with a game or work on a new element. I am curious how you know all these diverse elements to work on in order to achieve your ‘formal obedience’ goal-? So fascinating to me what you do and don’t worry about, and how you work on an element without messing up the final version, all done force-free and clearly hugely fun for Denver. 👍💚

Oh, I only know what to do based on the competition obedience class I'm in. This is totally new and I definitely don't know what I'm doing outside of that class. I'm just practicing what I've been told to practice and crossing my fingers that the picture comes together eventually 😂 But the foundational elements do make sense to me on a fundamental level - lots of parts of the picture to put together!

My boy does great when I have treats for reinforcement and would listen even without previously BUT now that I'm trying to to wean him off the treats so we can do CGC and hopefully obedience, he won't "work for free." I'm freaking out, CGC test is a couple weeks away. I've tried giving a treat randomly so he doesn't know when to expect it. What else can I do? I'm thinking that he doesn't find "me" rewarding enough on it's own like you do with Denver in your CGC video. For reference he is almost 6 months. Help!

I would work on having treats off your body and running over to "Party" with him. That way he never knows when you're going to produce a reinforcer from the environment (check out the "reinforcement cues" deep dive which I believe shows an example of this. I'd also look at making sure you're practicing your cues right before doing something he naturally finds reinforcing. I do this a lot with Denver ... he wants to go outside? Great, heel with me to the door. Want to be released to your puzzle toy? Awesome, sit, down, sit come past your toy, release to toy. You want to make a list of the thing your dog naturally likes and use that to your advantage. You'll also *likely* want to clean up your own reinforcement skills (something I'm always working on too!) - check out the deep dive on human mechanics for more on that!
