FOR WORK OR FOR FUN


Modifier cues are fun and useful
Train for practical uses like agility or search and rescue—or just for the thrill of it!

READY WHEN YOU ARE


START ANYTIME

Begin on your schedule

FROM ANYWHERE

Learn wherever there is internet access

USE ANY DEVICE

Tablet, cell, desktop, laptop. All good to go!

1. Teach a set of internal modifiers (for example, right/left)

2. Teach a set of external modifiers (for example, large/small)

3. Test for modifier cue comprehension

4. Determine which objects work well training large and small

5. Apply the advantages of teaching modifiers in pairs (large and small)

6. Apply syntax “rules” in modifier training. For example, if you want your dog to retrieve the small ball or touch the cone on the right, in which order should you give the cues to do so?

7. So much more!
