Video Refresher Library

Sometimes, when you practice training skills, you might need a little reminder of what something looked like or how you did something. This resource library has some great options for review. Please read the instructions so you understand how this list is set up, or watch this "how to" video if you prefer not to read through:

The training skills are listed alphabetically below.

• If the name of the skill is red, it has a linked article or graphic.

  • When a skill might have multiple names like Go to Bed or Go to Mat, both are listed, and the resources are identical, so you don't need to check both places

• Red numbers or words listed after the skill name are videos.

  • Because other trainers made some of these videos, there may be some small differences, but the general picture is the same. If they use a clicker, you can use your word, "Good!" or "Yes!" instead.

• If you need help, if a link isn't working for you (sometimes something is taken down after I've posted, and I don't realize it yet), or if you don't see the skill you're looking for, please email tanzi@dogcrazylady.com for help.

• If you need guidance about how often to train or how to add difficulty, check out the bottom of your note sheet and this article.
