"Go to Place" is a useful behavior for pet and service dogs alike! 

It's a great behavior to ask of a dog who is underfoot in the kitchen, or starting to beg at the dinner table, or rush the door when guests come over. Bringing a mat along to public places and training your pup to lay on it can also be a great way to teach your dog a secure place to be when you're out at a brewery or restaurant.

In this video I show you 4 short training sessions that I used to train this german shepherd puppy (Kash, the guide dog in training) to "go to place" on cue. These are unedited, uncut sessions so you can see what it takes to train the behavior, what I do when the dog gets distracted (and she does!), and when and how I decide to end the session.

For those who have been here a while, Kash is a 16 week old Fidelco puppy who you may recognize from my recent two-toy video, and is also Osa's daughter! 

Here is the cot I use. I like these ones because they are relatively inexpensive, very light to move around or tip against a wall, and you can replace the cot portion without having to buy a whole new one: https://amzn.to/461tuUo

Enjoy!

Yes, I do appreciate seeing uncut sessions! It was helpful to see a transition to free-form play too. I used to wonder, “isn’t just ending a session and walking away ‘punishing’?” I understand better now how to transition to free-form play, to potty break, to rest, etc., but it sure wasn’t obvious to me when first learning R+ training. I found it valuable also to see you smoothly cue the down when pup hesitated, instead of waiting pup out—i.e. just taking it in as training information—not causing pup any stress or confusion by sudden withholding of a treat. Practically every question that popped to mind you promptly answered with captions or an explanation. Super well-done training video! Thanks!l

So glad it was helpful!! I'll remember to include some of my transitions in the future :)

I use the klimbs for "place" when is it okay for me to leave them out rather than taking them up everytime? I'm also having difficulty with "wait". My pup is so excited to train he trys to climb on the ramp/klimbs/carpets et cetera before/whilst I'm placing them. I'm worried he's going to get hurt and what this will turn into once he's bigger. Thanks for your help in advance!

When I'm first training a new piece of equipment, I don't leave it out because of the possibility the dog will go "do the thing" and not get marked and rewarded for it. Once it's on cue, then I leave it out because at that point we're working on stimulus control. That being said, dogs are pretty smart and it probably doesn't matter a ton because of context of a training session. If my puppy was super eager to climb on the thing I'm trying to place, I would use a snuffle mat like i do in the new sit video, while I place the object down. Alternatively, if the puppy has a stay, I'd put them in a stay, go back, reward and release and then start the session.
