About Us > Our Training

Here I would like to put notes about our training - what have we done so far, how we did it or what we did wrong... I  hope this would help another, as well as you can put a comment to help us :)

 

Walking slowly next to you - I would never believe this is possible :) But as all words before, Kira get what I want her to do just for first or second attempt.. The worst problem was to keep her attention, so she would keep walking next to me even if she see a bird or something she wants to follow. 

How we did it?

Firstly I called Kira with happy voice, when she came (she always sits in front of me), I show her I got a treats in my right hand, she could smell it but I did not open my hand. Keeping my hand closed, I started walking slowly making sure Kira keeps watching the treats in my hand. So obviously she was following me, just next to me as I wanted and in that moment I said loudly and clearly word "slowly" , and then again like two times to ensure she realised it is a command. After 5 seconds I started shouting how good girl she is, as always on first try she has no idea why am I so happy, but when I did the same again she looked at me and I knew whe got it.. Next time I did not show any treats, just asked her to walk slowly. She new what I want, and I gave her rewards just after few seconds to ensure her this is exactly what I want & make her feel she is the most clever dog ever :)

 After few times trying in calm place where Kira is not really atracted by animals or anything else, I tried it when she wanted to cross the road before me. Again - called her, when she came, said "slowly" and walk with my hand next to her. She did great - kept going like 30 seconds with no try to run away or even look behind, she was just amazing.. Of course she get a great treats and all the attention she deserved so she new she did  great job and was happy to came and do it next time again....
