 Teaching the Broad Jump

I learned about teaching my dogs to jump  and land on the left side of the broad jump from Petra Ford in a webinar.  When dogs have commitment to the left side, they don’t cut the corner and they have a better angle for fronts. I taught this to Beckett who has a lovely broad jump and after teaching it to Dylan for a few weeks you will see in the video of not only how quickly he learned but also what a good front and finish he has.
