Great video. I just got a rescue a month ago and she is showing signs that she would enjoy agility, when we are out on our off leash walks in the woods. This will be help me work with her.
I really like that idea I wish I would have thought of it when I play ball with my dog he always wants to go around my left trying to get him to go around my right and that's a good idea thank you I'll work on it I promise I love the way you trained your dog
Great video. One caution is that left and right verbals need to be timed just right. If not timed correctly a dog may turn away from a jump instead of taking a jump and then turning. Remember, the dog is always right.
Dog Agility and Dog Training Psychology yes that can happen. I put “jump right” in my commands if needed. I also don’t use a directional if my body is already in position and telling them to go that way. So I use it more for distance, when I am behind, when they can’t see me or turning off contacts.
Puzzled. At the 2:08 minute mark the left hand is initially used to send the dog to wrap ‘right’ around cone, the followed several times using right hand to do the same thing. Series is repeated several times.
The left hand starts as a forward send to get the dog to take the cone as a forward obstacle. The right hand then is cuing the turn/flip away. However, this is a super old video and I focus more on the verbals now and not on so much motion.
Noticed your dog is doing the obedience commands so fast. Did yours also do it slow at first and how can I get him to do them faster ? will they get faster automaticly by lots of practicing. Cause mine seem to sit down easy but at slow pace and even when I try to make it fun and exciting can't get him to do it very fast. Great video's watching them all so carefully, amazing trainer. Wish we had someone like you in my area :)
Exorc1st is yours a collie because if not I think it's just a collie thing to do everything at 100mph lol! If it's a collie is it a working bred collie and do you have a good relationship? My lab is a working bred lab and he's pretty quick but not always.
I have a shepherd mix and I'm super curious to know if he might understand left/right? I know border collies have higher cognition for language, but he knows other words, so perhaps left/right won't be so different? Thank you!! I loved this video.
Monica Bower for sure! I teach it to all my students in puppy class. And my own staffy bull, terrier mix and chihuahua mix all know it. Have fun and good luck! It may take several weeks.
Hi! I love your video!!! Have been following this guide over the past weeks with great results! Quick question, when do you start to teach the 2nd directional? Do you do all the way to the cone excercises with left and then start since the beginning with right? Of you do the first sequence (without the cone) with both directionals first? Thanks a lot!!!!!

I teach one direction until I can stand up and say... right right sit, down, right, back.... and then I will stop doing that direction and go to the other.
Do you think my border collie/ heeler cross will be able to learn this? He is 7 months old and I havent been able to start his training because I've been away at college :/
Hi I see from your videos that to educate the dog you give many treats....... How many treats we should give to a puppy to don’t exaggerate ????? Is ok to give her food instead of something else ??? Thanks Andrea
It takes many sessions to get it on verbal only. It's an unnatural move for the dogs so takes a little longer than a sit or down. The dogs in the video already knew it, so sorry, it does look like one session.
Melina Alfaro depends on the dog. I tend to spend 5-10 minutes each training session and have just a few goals or behaviors I am focused on. Ending while the dog still wants more and with a game of tug or cuddle time!
hmmm This left/right is not "take the first obsticle to your left/right"? for example RC on dogl walk or running after tunnel with fast dog and yu want him to take left/right obstacle cause you're to slow to show him :D I have cik/cap for jumping with turn. so is your left/right my cik/cap?
I use it as Directionals. To turn "left" when I want the dog to go that way. I don't use it to circle tightly the wing of a jump and wrap tight like cik/cap.
Great question. And something I don’t necessarily say you have to do anymore. But... because this is teaching left and right that will lead into me crossing behind my dog... I use the same hand as the hand that will lead the rear cross signal for my dogs. So when I start sending them over a jump (for example) and will cross behind, I signal with my inside hand first followed by my off arm. So if my dog is on my left, and they will take the jump and then turn left when I cross behind, my left arm starts the rear cross signal by dropping my shoulder and forward sending the dog and then my right hand follows for the switch. BUT when my dog is facing me or coming in for a threadle or a lap turn, I will use the off arm. So I really don’t think it matters which arm, just don’t use the same arm for both. So don’t use your right/dominant hand for both directions. They should learn to get signals from both hands. Sorry if this was confusing.

I have a white swiss shepherd and it also depends, sometimes he do things faster and other slower
My collie is also very "sticky" she does everything very slowly!

Great vídeos great trainee show US this work with a Mali
Wow
thank u this helped so much and is he a boarder collie
Yup. The little one at the beginning is a mix dog, only 8 pounds all grown up. But the other two are border collies.
Do you think my border collie/ heeler cross will be able to learn this? He is 7 months old and I havent been able to start his training because I've been away at college :/
Emily Marie for sure! You have a great mix there and still very young. Have fun!
My 6 yo Pitbull learned it :p shes sloooow but she will do it :3 one of the best tricks ever my 7 yo GSD mix use it when she is really happy
Hi
I see from your videos that to educate the dog you give many treats.......
How many treats we should give to a puppy to don’t exaggerate ?????
Is ok to give her food instead of something else ???
Thanks
Andrea
I do reward a lot! ;)
How long does it take? Athena didn't have it by the first day, as it seemed the dog in this video did?
It takes many sessions to get it on verbal only. It's an unnatural move for the dogs so takes a little longer than a sit or down. The dogs in the video already knew it, so sorry, it does look like one session.
thanks!
Would this be to much for my 4 month old Shelty puppy? Hes a fast learner i challenge him everyday very smart dog.
No. Starting basic directionals can be good for any age. Have fun!
I taught my puppy "spin" for right and "Twirl" for left. Can I change the command to get into agility?
Yup! Dogs pick up changes quickly!
omg so cute what kind of dog are they?
Bridgyt Sullivan the cute one at the beginning is a little chihuahua mix. The bigger one is a border collie.
How long can a learning session be for a dog?
Melina Alfaro depends on the dog. I tend to spend 5-10 minutes each training session and have just a few goals or behaviors I am focused on. Ending while the dog still wants more and with a game of tug or cuddle time!
hmmm This left/right is not "take the first obsticle to your left/right"? for example RC on dogl walk or running after tunnel with fast dog and yu want him to take left/right obstacle cause you're to slow to show him :D I have cik/cap for jumping with turn. so is your left/right my cik/cap?
I use it as Directionals. To turn "left" when I want the dog to go that way. I don't use it to circle tightly the wing of a jump and wrap tight like cik/cap.
are the left and right cues for collection only ? Or for both directionals and collection ?
I just use it for directionals. I have a different word and training for collection.

Why Left hand always when turn L and right when R?

So don’t use your right/dominant hand for both directions. They should learn to get signals from both hands. Sorry if this was confusing.

Didn't you use too much of treats as reward ? I heard that it's important to reward with different ways to not make the dog food dependent
Salim Zouigh not in the training stages. I reward lots!!
Kkkkkkkkjj
Go weak side first. Yeah.
