Pearls:
- A better way to train two-on-two-off (2o2o) contact behavior is to set a plank, cue "Feet!" and then play with moving while Jackie waits in 2o2o to be released
- Always reinforce Jackie at a variable rate of reward so that she stays fresh and energetic for the play
- After each repetition, throw a reset cookie for Jackie to go and find well behind the contact plank, this way Jackie becomes more independent in getting into 2o2o position
- To cue a turn out of a tunnel, give the directional cue "Here!" before Jackie enters a "dog cannon" (a straight tunnel that dogs run through at top speed)
Jackie playing teeters, turns out of a tunnel, and 2o2o:
