Week 5: Wait – Succeed Together

Exercise

Wait – adding distance, don’t forget ‘ok go’ release cue

Wait, lean away with your body weight shifting back – return to your dog and reward
Wait, move one foot behind you so not actually moving away from your dog – return and reward
Wait, take one step back, then step back towards your dog again – reward
Wait while you do a full turn on the spot – reward
Wait, take 2 steps away and then step back to your dog – reward
Finish all waits with ‘ok go’ release cue – roll treat away. Try to get several rewards to your dog before releasing them.
Put really easy ‘waits’ in amongst the more tricky ones
