Boon: Level 2: Trick/Trainers Choice


Smart trainer!
(Remember! Sue says that it's all tricks!!)

Sheila's "Chin" behavior is a good beginning to Deliver: Level 2:
Dog targets a palm-up hand in the seated trainer's lap.

For Deliver: Level 2 Boon will need to rest her muzzle in Sheila's open palm
IN HER LAP for 3 seconds. (either hand)

Another Touch behavior.
Another L2 Duration behavior.

Ah! Great minds.........

So. What to do to build this into Deliver?
Drop the cue.
Continue teaching the behavior.
And, when the behavior is ready, substitute the "Touch" cue instead.

  1. Notice when Boon wants to run the show how I withdraw my attention and wait for her to voluntarily get back "in the game"
