One of the common themes we bring up during our lessons is this: prevention is better than intervention! Watch part one and read the caption to learn what preventative steps we took. Because we took these steps, we set ourselves up for a successful pack walk! The last thing we addressed during this lesson was intervention. If Lizzy does get triggered during the walk, we need to make sure our corrections are applied at the right time and with the right intensity to get through to her.
For Lizzy’s first follow-through lesson we needed to address a new behavior she had developed: shooting out in front of the stroller wheel. I forgot to film the first part of the activity where we set the tone for the walk. During this part I discovered that Lizzy was doing the same behavior when walking down the steps of the front porch. If we start our walks by allowing her to shoot out in front then we are rewarding that behavior, regardless of the stroller being involved. So before I started filming we worked on addressing the behavior right there before the walk even started. Because we took the time to set the right tone first, Lizzy was way less likely to exhibit the behavior during the walk.
The hardest part of every bootcamp is saying goodbye
Do your dogs wait for permission before exiting the house? Practicing door manners is an extremely useful and empowering activity. It teaches your pack to respect the boundaries you set, putting you in the position of pack leader. It also keeps them safe from the POSSIBILITY of getting hit by a car or running away.
