Finally nailed the seesaw!
Today we finally nailed to seesaw!
How we learned the seesaw:
-
Just learning the noise and watching it move. We would move the seesaw with him nearby and lots of treats to desensitised him from the movement and sound.
-
Seesaw with help. My trainer would put a chair under the seesaw so the drop wasn’t as big. Keeping in mind to always reward staying on the contact zone and only releasing from contact once safe.
-
Keep it slow. Don’t forget contact zones and we are using a disk to help mark and keep him on contact till safe and ready to come off.
-
Rinse and repeat. Safety first and keep rewarding contact zone. Keep it slow. And go back to basics if necessary.
