This is very nice, but what I do in obedience is, I tell the dog to jump and get his dumbbell or whatever he’s gonna do out there and I run toward the jump and tap it tap it tap it and say jump jump and then run backwards, but facing him if you know what I meanand sometimes I even do it on a line only in the very beginning

I just feel as though doing it the right way from the very beginning builds muscle memory, but that’s just me

Dogs learn from making errors so I don’t have an issue with it not being correct from the beginning because the dog obviously knows the parts to the behaviour. Personally though I feel the dog made two different errors and was only rewarded for one in the behaviour chain so there was a learning opportunity missed. Personally I would have rewarded after he didn’t touch the jump with a marker. In the least (I have one that says “correct, continue on” if I didn’t want to stop & literally reward/reset), & then marked (as was done) when he took the jump upon return to complete the sequence.
