Puppy Culture Potluck: Ep42 - Troubleshooting Free Stack Training

Madcap Radio

This episode’s question is from one of our Killer Free Stack show training students, but my answer is equally applicable to anyone training a dog:

“Hi all, I have a 10-week-old Labrador puppy. I have the Killer Free Stacks video… when I try to get a moment of stillness to mark, she auto-sits. If I hold the food in front of her, she digs at it hard and will sit. Any tips for teaching a stack would be great!”

In this podcast I cover:

  • Tips for hand position to avoid cueing sits
  • How to know if your puppy understands what you want him to do
  • What to do it your puppy’s just not “getting it”
