How often and what?

Quality over quantity and variety is the spice of life, or something like that.

What is my schedule for working dogs? I try to stick to and recommend 3-6 sessions of 2-5 minutes a day.  

This is one of my sessions with Lilith, she’d just come in from the yard where she played with her “brother”. I grabbed a handful of treats from a jar by the door and used a context cue to let her know it was time to train. 

My goal here is building a heel seeking behavior on cue. Pressing repetitions can be demotivating so you’ll see me mix in a few other behaviors such as: spin, rewind, bounce, and positions. 

How often do you train your puppies?
