This is a continuation of the 50ft pen series with Jeff Christiansen. In this video, Jeff shows you the second day of teaching the walk up where he explains:
- Introducing the short flanks with the walk-ups.
- What the definition of short flanks is.
- Why he uses half commands with short flanks and how to express them.
- Why the 50ft pen is a perfect size for this exercise.
- Why you don’t want your dog to read your physical back-up.
- Your dog has to listen to the command.
- What a good walk up looks like.
- Why the short flank has to be your idea, not the dog’s idea at this stage.
- The importance of praising the good actions.
- Why this is all about the smaller, short moves.
- Why he wants his dogs to look him in the face, not the ground, when recalled.
- and much more…
