Dog Training, Oliver, Jack Russell, Day 3: Off Leash Come + Place | Gate | Forest | Blairesville GA

Two-Week Board and Train Program: Oliver, Jack Russell Terrier, Male 6-months-old

Dog Training, Oliver, Jack Russell, Day 3: Off Leash Come, Place, Sit, Follow | Gate Manners | The Forest Walk | Blairesville GA

Oliver was off-leash in the training room with “come”, “sit”, “place”, “follow” and “break”. He is dragging his six foot leash in the yard with the above commands. Oliver was introduced to gate manners. He also had his first walk in the forest.

The first week of the program the focus is in-home manners training. Dogs do not generalize training from one environment to another. The second week of the program is manners training out in public. I travel with Oliver to all the beautiful towns, hiking trails and parks in North GA, as well as Western NC and TN area.

With all dogs in the 2-week program, I'm increasing Distance, Duration, Distractions on command to a high statistical level 99.99%. When dogs enter the program their level of distance and duration on command is usually very low around distractions. I specialize in distraction training.

In addition, I teach sign language along with the verbal commands. As dogs age some experience hearing loss. Pet parents report they are able to communicate with their senior dogs with sign language.

Commands included over the 2-weeks both on-leash and off-leash:

Come (recall)
Break - release command
Place - boundary training (object defined)
Sit, Down and Wait - (It doesn't matter if Oliver "sits" or "downs" just so he is stationary)
Heel and Sit – Formal Loose Leash Walking (defined position)
Follow – Informal Loose Leash Walking

Oliver is wearing a martingale collar (control collar NOT a correction collar). He is also wearing a SportDog Model 825X. Each dog's equipment in the board and train program is customized over the 2-weeks to ensure that they are sent home with the correct electronics and individualized settings. The goal is to gain focus at the lowest static stimulation with the training tool and to get the command completed at a high level (99.99%) around high distractions off-leash.

Thanks for watching!
