Sometimes playing with your dogs gets them all wound up, and they need a reminder to calm down. Today, Winnie and Phinn are going to share the "crate" command, but you can also use "go to your spot" and "bed" as well.
- First, hold a treat in your hand so they can smell it.
- Direct them to the location.
- Toss the treat on the bed or in the crate, and say “bed” or “crate” while releasing their collar.
- Keep practicing until you no longer need the treat!
This is a fairly simple trick that will save you a lot of time when you need your puppy to go to their special area. Sometimes, without even saying it Winnie and Phinn need a little quite time to themselves, and we’ll find one of them snoozing away in the crate!
Until next time...
