It’s a common—and incredibly frustrating—problem.
You stand your dog, walk to the end of the ring, turn around, and they’re looking right at you.

You give the drop signal and… nothing. Just a blank stare.

Here's how to tackle that in training:
🔹 Add value to the down. Use your reward marker and reinforce the moment your dog's elbows hits the ground.
🔹 Isolate the signal. Stand → walk away → turn → drop → mark → reward.
🔹 50% of the time, mark and pay the down without continuing the sequence.

💡 “50% of the time, I mark and pay the down—I don’t go on.”
Build value. Create clarity. Watch your signals improve.

Obedience Road Closes July 31!

When my dog has a disappointing ring performance on Saturday, I’m almost always ready to try again on Sunday.

But here’s the key: I don’t just hope for a better outcome—I train for one.

Between shows, I get to work—addressing not just the failed exercises, but also the ones that felt shaky. And often, with the right approach, you can fix it overnight.

Join me for: 🛠 “How To Fix It Overnight!”

We’ll talk about how to do meaningful and appropriate training between shows.
