it worked for me, but I used a sticky note on the door then took it off so if someone came over they won’t wonder why there is tape on the door. The Sticky Note worked almost better for my opinion.
Thanks for these instructional videos. My son has cerebral palsy and is confined to a wheelchair. It could take many years before he obtains a trained assistance dog as the wait list is currently closed. They also cost around $20,000 AUD to train. (but are provided free to recipient). I am going to start training my border collie x and see how I go. An assistance dog would benefit him immensley.
amazing
holy crap, i dont think i can ever get my dog to do this LOL
excellent two part tutorial, so thoughtfully explained.
Thanks! It’s actually really easy if you take it step by step. Training dogs is about breaking ti down into small enough steps that you dog can easily learn them and ‘explaining’ it in several different ways.
your very good at dog training
wow
