14d • Toy Play
Retrieving training session with Rocky
Switching from toy to toy, retrieves, and using various markers (I have around 10 – they indicate whether the toy will be in my hand, placed down, or thrown far from the dog; also whether it will appear in front of or behind the dog, and even the direction) - these things my dogs have been learning since puppyhood.
I believe I have mastered this part of play and actively use it in training. He enjoys play, running, and cooperation the most. As I mentioned earlier, food slows him down. I use it when needed to clarify details, but this can also be done very successfully with toys.
What interests me most are two things: the dog’s ability to show his best qualities in a challenging environment with distractions, and the development of psychological resilience – so that the dog does not become discouraged after a mistake, but instead accepts it boldly and as a challenge.
