Michael Ellis on Movement is Your Friend

In this clip, Michael Ellis quickly reminds us how important movement is in dog training. Movement is crucial in many parts of training but is also an important part of redirecting a reactive dog. A combination of building value in the handler and using movement is one of the best ways to redirect your dog before they go over the threshold.

When people have specific training questions we recommend that they go to our website and post those questions in the ASK CINDY on the front page of leerburg.com. Cindy has been training dogs since she was a teenager and has competed in several dog sports at a regional and national level. She was also a vet tech and owned a boarding/training and grooming business for many years as well as breeding working Dobermans and Belgian Malinois under the kennel name Kaiserhaus. Questions posted to ASK CINDY are answered almost every day. They are also recorded in our systems if a dog owner has additional questions Cindy will review the previous Q&As and this helps her give better feedback and assistance. Ask Cindy!
