Re: Madix Videos
Very nice! He is a beautiful dog and clearly loves working with you.
Have you considered reaching for the rewards after he does the behavior (mark then get treat) as opposed to before?

He is our club's Mama's Boy!I have alternated between rewards before, rewards after and toy vs treat rewards. He is very uncomfortable in the front position, particularly with the dumbbell so I started with the treats before to give him a place to focus his attention besides being uncomfortable. It seems to have done the job but now that you say that - I apparently have fallen into rewarding the exact same way for all of the other things I ask him to do
LOL thanks for pointing that out - I need to start switching it up again!!-

Hi Falon,
It seems that I've enrolled in a beginning dog class in Allendale where you've trained with Madix before. Raven is enrolled, but Ceska comes along for the ride and entertainment.

Re: Madix Videos
Oooo are you going to Sharron? She is great! I really like her a lot. I take all my dogs through her beginning classes. If you want to become extremely competitive in agility or something, she is not set up for that but as far as good, solid classes go - I've been very, very pleased. Had my leash reactive Lab, my SAR dog and my reactive Dutchie in there and she is willing to work with them allBeechtree wrote:Hi Falon,
