An open door = NEUTRAL / NOTHING
Some highlights from Spruceās Documentary in Classroom. He now has 6 videos and itās only day 2. Most are taught āsit and waitā before going out a door. This often breaks down because the dog anxiously WANTS TO get out. Teach, an open door is no different than a picture on a wall. Means nothing until released. During training Iāll have several doors open (safely during training phase) where the dog can make a choice. Restrictions (leash) = management. Choices (freedom) = trained.
