What do you see in the body language and verbal communication between these two. It's a very short clip, yes, but this went on for 30 seconds BEFORE Riggs vocalized.
Does your dog get distracted easily? Or maybe the don't pay attention to you for very long?
Here is the first part to fixing that! Always start in a low distraction environment before adding distractions or trying this in public or on walks!

We always work on obedience and control before, during, and after play!
These two dogs are so great around each other, and Grayson regularly reminds me of why he's been my perfect dog. I am so lucky to have found him in the stage of life that I did. He's been with me through everything in the last 6 years, from ups to downs and everything in between.
I am beyond thankful for the journey I have been on as a trainer but also just as a person and a mom since Grayson came into my life. I am even more grateful for the friendship I have found in @lauren.greenwell since we first worked together to help Drax almost 2 years ago.
As life starts to pick up now that spring is near, I am so thrilled for what the next 2 years will bring.
Wishing a happy 10th birthday to Blake, one of my very first client dogs! @kristinmorr
Grayson learned how to do this when he was a puppy (this video is 6 years old!) From his furry cousin, Sawyer!
What does your dog do when they see a balloon?
Annie's nail dremel. I do every dog's nails like this! Practice doing this position yourself for easy nail care at home. #dognails #nailclipping #naildremel #dogtraining #toledodogtraining #dogtrainer #toledodogtrainer #thebalancedcaninellc
One of the first things we teach every dog, no matter their age, is boundary manners. We do this with the crate, exterior doors, doors to rooms our dog is off limits from, and the car. Lily took to this exercise like a little genius! So excited to work with her and her dedicated owners 😁
How to: Food Luring, Part 2
Start with your dog in front of you, allow your dog to push you
to get the treat. If your movement makes your dog second guess him
or herself, just practice the pushing part for a while.
Your dog can push you, or you can push them!
You can lure onto objects, into new places, through sketchy situations,
or into obedience positions!
The possibilities are endless, just be sure to keep your hand and your
dog's nose in contact for best results!

How to: Food Luring, Part 1
Choose small, soft treats.
In your open hand, keep all of your fingers and thumb
pointing in the same direction as you pinch your treat between
your thumb and most comfortable finger to hold with.
Deliver the treat directly to your dog's nose. Wait for them to
invest effort into getting the treat and for them to stop using their
teeth to get the treat before releasing your thumb.
Practice this delivery method until you and your dog are comfortable.
For an added challenge, practice with your less dominant hand too!
