WW358: Feb 5 - Keep Your Heeling Exciting Fresh and Fun (Repeat)

Heeling is challenging. It’s up to us to make it fun and maintain our dog’s attitude. Too often we work only on the exercise, and it quickly becomes boring and demotivating. Dogs love a challenge! They love variety! In this workshop I will show you how to make your reinforcers more exciting. I will teach you how to incorporate tricks into your heeling to add drive and attitude. You will also learn a variety of heeling games you can play with your dog. You can mix and match which will keep heeling fresh not just for your dog, but for you as well! Because after all, heeling should be fun for both of you. Whether your dog is learning how to heel, or your dog is experienced and fully trained, this workshop will give you tools to keep heeling interesting and exciting.

Note:  This is a repeat workshop that has run previously under a different course number.  Please review your workshop library to make sure this would not be a duplicate purchase.
