Jackie graduated from Intro to Treibball class at Lucky Dog Training. She did a great job learning "Go out!", "Come by!", "Away!", "Push!", and "That'll do!"
Pearls:
- "Go out!" is the cue where the dog leaves the handler's side and goes out to a target. Eventually we'll fade the target and the dog will go out to the indicated ball.
- "Come by!" is the cue that directs the dog to move clockwise.
- "Away!" is the cue that directs the dog to move anti-clockwise.
- "Push!" is the cue that directs the dog to herd the target toward the handler.
- "That'll do!" is the recall cue that directs the dog to return to the handler. The dog comes to recognize "That'll do!" as a form of praise and recognition of a job well done.
