Shorts: Farm dogs training
What happens here
Progress to more complex commands like 'load up,' where dogs are taught to climb onto a designated object, such as the hay bale shown in the video, or a raised platform. Use clear verbal cues like 'load up' and accompanying physical gestures, rewarding success with treats. This command teaches controlled movement and can be generalized to prevent dogs from entering or resting on cultivated garden beds, newly planted areas, or other spaces where their presence might disturb eco-gardening efforts or wildlife habitats.
Goal: Train your dogs to 'load up' onto a designated object or platform, which can be adapted to keep them off sensitive garden beds or direct them to specific areas.
Tools and materials
- Hay bale or sturdy raised platform N/A — As a training object for the 'load up' command
