Engagement Exercise

The engagement exercise is a fundamental skill we teach all of our dogs. It’s the starting point for all of our training. We recommend starting with this exercise since it’s easy to learn and yields fast results within five minutes. Watching your dog engage and interact with you is a fun and rewarding experience, and it also offers several benefits, including:

• Teaching your dog a strong and reliable marker word for better communication
• Encouraging your dog to think and figure out how to succeed
• Demonstrating the value of patience and calmness
• Developing your skills as a handler
• Establishing clear communication and reinforcing good habits
• Removing bad habits that may have previously been established
• Building a foundation for teaching other skills such as loose leash walking, toilet training, and recall.

We suggest that everyone who uses our videos starts with this exercise series initially. The engagement exercise has proven to be one of the most simple and basic skills to teach your dog, and it offers fast and effective results. Importantly, this exercise helps to undo any bad habits that you may have started with other training systems.

With our video series, you can achieve better communication, improve your dog’s behaviour, and create a happier and more harmonious home environment.
