Video Transcript

"So another important thing when you are working with your dog is that you generalize you teach the dog one thing in one place and we need to generalize it to let them know that it means everybody in every place. So if we got a no jumping rule we need them to understand that no matter who is walking them or who they are approaching they can't jump on the people. So I'm going to show you one of the ways that you can work on this we are going to be using 3 people and 1 dog and we are just going to be doing a little bit of dog shifting. Come here Raven let's go so if she gets the idea no matter where she is or what she is doing she has to sit to say hi. Let's go, good girl. Raven sit, good girl, hi. Hi! How are you? Good. Do you want to say hi to my dog? Good girl. Alright so see you later let's go this way Raven. Raven sit, sit, come on you can't say hi if you don't sit, let's go. Come on Munchiken are you ready?
