i have mr ellis power of food dvd i did learn how to give the treat, that's easier on my fingers i couldn't do it correctly holding a camera. just a spur of the moment. never used the camera for video before, the vid clips would be helpful in phases i phase a week or 2. i need to have someone hold the camera. she does have the idea w/touch pads. connie should i post the vid in a different area i will give MT a honest try. thanks everyone
lynne that makes sense, question ,if she turns her head then i say good, will that teach her to look away for a treat?
As Anne and others have commented, yes, if you repeat it. It was just a means of determining if your marker was properly loaded (ie dog now has a firm association between the word and the reward).
And I wasn't saying to mark exactly when she turned her head, what I meant was for you to say your marker word when she wasn't specifically looking at you. If your marker is loaded correctly, she should look at you for the treat.
MY description was to try to make things as simple as possible for John & since the dog does know some positions already they could be reimforced with the markers & then he could move forward with the MT for his next phase of training.
Just trying to keep it simple so he can at least get some success & want to continue with it.
