Reward Training Using Kibbles or Treats.

Correct behavior in first section is complex: it is 1.) sitting AND 2.) looking at ME.

Notice how Dr. Sophia holds her hands at center before she give treat. This is to make sure puppy is looking at her. She is very consistent. When puppy jumps, she stops and looks away - doesn't give puppy any attention - no reward.

Notice how she give treat very quickly AFTER she observes correct behavior by puppy. Repitition and practice is key. After a few days-weeks of this training the dog-pet will display correct behavior all the time, treats or no treats.

Feeding Guidelines

Feeding is individual. This is approximate and should be adjusted for your individual situation. Feed your dog/pet about 1/4 of their normal amount of food in their dish in the morning. During the day they have to work for rewards! At bedtime they get another 1/4 of their normal amount of food in their dish.
