Stations with Turns

Stations with Turns

90, 180, 270, 360, 450 Degree Turns.  Right and Left

This topic in progress…

Teaching a 180 RIGHT aka “About Turn”

Be sure to take 3-4 steps in place AS you make your way around the turn.  Do *not* pivot, do not take the turn in 1 step, that is an entirely different exercise.

To help your dog through the turn, click on your FIRST step, but wait until you COMPLETE the turn to deliver the treat as Scout helps me demo in this clip:

270, 360 & 450 Degree Turns

In progress.  

Sketched this for a student to illustrate desired path of travel/heeling when executing a 360.  Their 360 was much improved.  Sharing in case it helps you, too.

Though our discussion / sketch is on the 360, info also applies to 270’s and 450’s.

Any questions lmk.
