I am reviewing the marker training and don't quite understand it? I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to break it down into small steps.
Full Question:
Hi Cindy,I have a question for you: I am reviewing the marker training and am lacking when it comes to breaking down the exercises. I understand the concept but am not clear on how to do it. I get it on some things but am clueless on others. Also, the concept of not giving a command until the dog knows the exercise is beyond my understanding at the moment but I am working on it. I am so impressed with your sit in front with the 13 week old pup and on some of the DVDs there are pictures of you with a perfect heel sit with a young pup.
I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to break it down into small steps. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, thanks for the tip on the odor for the dog's run. The washing and raking has finally gotten it done.
Thanks
Patricia

It’s really not possible for me to train you via email on this. I’m sorry but it’s too detailed and there are too many variables.
Do you have any of our clicker related books? This one is excellent.
We are also in the process of producing a marker training video that picks up where the article leaves off. If you are receiving our monthly newsletter then you will be notified when it’s being released. We will announce it in the newsletter.
Sorry I’m not more help on this matter, but actually the most important part of marker training is OUR learning curve. It is simply but not easy, that’s for sure. It’s a constant learning process but the journey is a lot of fun and you can’t really hurt anything by trying new things if you are using markers.
