Adding Toys Step 1 Stand with your dog at your side. Don’t ask the dog for a stationary position. Get a toy from a nearby table or training bag. Each time your dog jumps up or on you for the toy, pull it away. When your dog can ignore the toy with his four feet on the ground, say Get It and allow him to have the toy. You should work through similar steps with your dog with toys. Do not, however, try the exercises below unless your dog finds toys highly rewarding. If you do, you will actually be rewarding your dog for ignoring toys—not a good idea if you are trying to build toy drive. Step 3 Stand with your dog at your side. Don’t ask the dog for a stationary position. Get a toy from a nearby table or training bag. Dangle the toy near your dog’s face. If he jumps up or on you for the toy, pull it away. When your dog can ignore the toy with you dangling it in his face, say Get It and allow him to have the toy. Step 2 Stand with your dog at your side. Don’t ask the dog for a stationary position. Get a toy from a nearby table or training bag. Start to bring the toy toward your dog as if you are going to tug or offer it to him. If he jumps up or on you for the toy, pull it away. When your dog can ignore the toy when you present it to tug, say Get It and allow him to have the toy. Step 4 Stand with your dog at your side. Don’t ask the dog for a stationary position. Get a toy from a nearby table or training bag. Begin to lower the toy to the ground. If your dog moves toward the toy, pull it away. When your dog can ignore the toy that is on the ground, say Get It and allow him to have the reward. The dog is ignoring a toy on the ground The dog is rewarded by my saying Get It and allowing her to get the toy on the floor, followed by a tugging game with the toy. The dog is ignoring a toy dangling near her face. The dog is rewarded by my saying Get It and allowing her to tug. Tip for Everyday Life See if you can apply the same training techniques with your dog’s bowl at each meal time. Start to set your dog’s bowl down and each time he goes for it, pick it up. Release your dog to his bowl when he can ignore it when you set it on the ground. Next month, we will work on having your dog perform simple tasks in the face of distractions. Good luck and most of all, have fun! D January 08 | Clean Run 41
