Do You Have A Plan? Criteria ADDS Clarity!

So you want to train your dog? You grab your lead, treat pouch and the pup!

but what do you do, the thought is there but the execution is difficult so you end up just throwing some treats around and calling it a day, but your training goals aren’t getting any closer. the Dog Reactivity is getting worse, your obedience is falling apart!

here’s the fix and its pretty simple! Make a plan… I know I know, I’m a genius…

OK I’m also cocky!

But it really is that simple!

2 things you can do!

Set a desired outcome - I know it sounds simple but what are you trying to get out of the session? are you looking for engagement, duration, distance or emotion?

Focus on small details - Really break down you goals into the smallest possible things focus on the little pictures to build the big picture, focusing on the small details makes the big picture better, but it also gives you more to train!

In all honesty it is simple but its also having the guidance and that’s the biggest part, sometimes the route you take isn’t the most optimal to get the most out of your dog!
