modifier cues in action
When people think of dog training, they don’t often think beyond teaching basic cues. However, dogs are capable of so much more! Instead of simply cueing your dog to retrieve an object, you can teach your dog to retrieve the object on the left versus the object on the right—or the big object instead of the small object. Or you can teach your dog to go over an obstacle or under an obstacle, through an obstacle or around an obstacle.
Teaching your dog modifier cues will not only impress your friends and take your training to a whole new level, but it can be extremely useful for dog sports, service work, and daily life! In this video, KPA Dog Trainer Professional program student Paul Joo and his dog Jessie demonstrate how concept training can be great fun for both dog and trainer!
For more information about teaching your animal fun and useful concepts for work, sport, or daily living, check out KPA’s Concept Training course series.
