Clean Run - July 2020 - 53

When the dog truly starts to understand the behavior we are asking of him, then we can change the
location of the set reinforcement to "proof" his understanding of the job.

	 If your dog tries to grab the food or toy (this part is
hard!), let them do it. If they get the food, let them
eat it, and if they grab a toy, simply take the toy back
from them.

Exercise 2
This exercise is designed to teach your dog when to
perform behaviors in the presence of available reinforcement. It assumes that your dog can already perform a
jump or tunnel on a verbal cue.

4.	 Repeat the exercise.
	 If your dog failed the first try, make it easier by moving the reinforcement farther away from them, getting closer to the obstacle, or using a hand motion to
help them move to the obstacle.

1.	 Stand in front of a jump or a tunnel with your dog stationary by your side.
2.	 Hold a treat or a toy in the hand farthest away from
the dog (i.e., if the dog is on your left, the reinforcement is in your right hand).

	 If your dog was successful, you can make the exercise
more difficult by moving the reinforcement closer to
him or by placing the reinforcement on the ground.

3.	 Cue your dog to take the jump or tunnel.
	 If your dog performs the obstacle, mark them with a
marker cue that releases them to the food or toy (e.g.,
"yes!" or "get it!") and reinforcement.


While standing in front of a jump or tunnel, hold a treat or a toy
in the hand farthest away from the dog.

Exercise 3
Once your dog has a firm grasp of stimulus control for his
reinforcement as well as his jumps and tunnels, you can
start to really test his control around them at the same
time. This exercise requires a jump (or a jump wing) and
tunnel placed very close together (start with them about
6 ft. away). If the tunnel is curved, place the jump on the
outside of the tunnel entrance (i.e., if you are using the
left tunnel entrance, place the jump to the left of that

If your dog performs the obstacle after you cue it, use your
marker cue that releases them to the food or toy.

entrance). Keep in mind, if the dog repeatedly fails at the
exercise, you can always make it easier by putting more
space between the two obstacles.
1.	 Stand with your dog facing the jump and tunnel,
where you are directly between the two obstacles.
2.	 Cue the dog to perform the jump or the tunnel.
	

If the dog performs the obstacle cued, mark him with
a marker cue that releases him to your reinforcement
("yes!" or "get it!") and deliver him the food or toy.
