Tips for Adding a Verbal Cue - Examples Down and Spin

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

This video goes over tips for teaching a dog or puppy to perform a behavior on just the verbal and not the visual cue. My puppy Bliss is 17 weeks old (hes a big boy at 25 pounds already!) and he does not know yet to offer a behavior on just a verbal cue for the behaviors of down and spin. So in this video I show you the process of getting to the point where he understands just the word means to do the behavior without the hand gesture or treat lure.
I forgot to mention in the video that before adding a cue, its a good idea to do at least 3-5 short training sessions on the behavior with using luring or targeting before asking for the behavior just on a verbal cue with a green learner. With an experienced learner with many behaviors on a verbal cue only, sometimes they can learn a new cue in just a matter of repetitions! But if your dog is really struggling its a matter of just doing a couple short 1-2 min lessons before seeing if the dog can then offer the behavior.
Happy Training!

    My dog knew spin with a hand signal without a treat but I couldn't teach her with the verbal cue only. I think my biggest mistake was doing the verbal cue at the same time as the hand signal. So I tried your method and in two short sessions she learnt it. Doing the verbal cue first really helped. Also stepping back from time to time to hand signals to not make the task constantly harder. Thanks!

    This video is so great! I love that he needs time to understand what you want from him. Makes me feel so good about that my good boy doesn't understand some things I tell him to do :)

    I need to go back and watch some older videos on stay. How on earth do you get the other dogs to stay when your working with 1 dog? I just got a Heeler puppy and my mini Aussie has always been the queen. She knew stay but…has to be the center of affection and attention. Thank you for another great educational experience!

    Hello, I have been watching your older videos and found many helpful tips and my border collie is so calm and attentive all through positive reinforcement so thank you greatly! I have tried to look for a video on your channel about working on long lead when it comes to recall and other obedience training that our pup is already aware of on loose leash. If this is something you address on your membership packages I would be happy to purchase as I love your way of thorough explanation and training. Can you direct me to ny query please? Thank you so much!

    My dog is too small for the lure to work for lie down. I have succesfully trained him on everything else I have tried, including picking out his toys by name... how do I teach a small dog lie down? When I lure him with the food he is small enough that he doesn't need to lay down. What do I do lol!?

    You can train when the dog is up on a bed and you are face to face. You can also use this method: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k31plMNspcK3pto.html

    so you don't teach hand signals first then add the word before the hand signal? then you can fade the hand signal?

    Im not sure what you mean. I was doing that in the video. But with my own stuff, I use mainly verbal cues because I do canine freestyle, with my deaf dog I just use hand signals though

    Oh he’s so pretty I’m very laid-back for a border Collie , you’re actually lucky 🍀. I love his face but I can’t really see it in the videos do you have a picture of him where I can go see him a close-up of his little face does he have blue eyes?
