Bitch in Season Distraction Training (Patreon)

Having an intact male dog can come with its own set of challenges, including encountering a bitch in season. But it's an important distraction to work around and proof behaviors around because not only will I likely encounter a BIS at various competitions and events, but they will also be present in the real world while working your service dog.

This is a super high level distraction so it's also just great training!

Key takeaway: watch how I help him get the right answer the first few times by getting close and presenting a reward (and also a physical target to move to) and how that lower "ask" at the beginning creates very quick success without that same help after the 2nd rep.
