CHAPTER 14
Fading Out the Treat&Train™ System
14.1 Which Dogs Should Learn This Exercise
14.2 Overview
14. 3 Method 1: Rewarding With the Treat&Train™ System Away From the Rug
14. 4 Method 2: Removing the Treat&Train™ System and Rewarding by Hand
14.1 Which Dogs Should Learn This Exercise
1) If you have multiple dogs in the household and want to train a second dog using
the machine.
2) You want to be able to send your dog to a rug without a Treat&Train™ system present.
14.2 Overview
At this stage, most dogs thinks “place” means go lie down in front of the
Treat&Train™ system. But they don’t necessarily know it means lie on the rug
without a system. You can tell because if you move the Treat&Train™ system away
from the rug and say “place” your dog will probably run to the system. And if you
remove the system from the room but leave the rug in its regular location and
then say “place,” your dog may give you a puzzled look. In this last exercise of the
system program, we’ll teach Fido “place” means specifically lie on the rugs even
when there’s no Treat&Train™ system present.
14.3 Method 1: Rewarding with the Treat&Train™ System
Away from the Rug
Step 1: Start by setting the Treat&Train™ system about 10 feet from the rug. Walk
Fido over to the rug and say “place.” When he lies down, give 1-2 treats by hand
while he’s lying down on his rug. Then end the exercise by dispensing a treat from
the system. Then call (or target) Fido back to you while you’re standing near the
rug. When he gets back to you, tell him to “place” and then reward when he lies
down on the rug. (It’s important to position yourself so that he will orient himself
correctly on the rug.) When Fido can correctly repeat this step 10 times in a row,
go to Step 2.
Step 2: Repeat as in Step 1, except that this time stand one step closer to the
system so that Fido has to move away from the system in order to “place” on the
rug. Repeat until Fido can run to his rug and lie down 9 out of 10 times in a row.
If by this point Fido is able to start running to the rug even before you say “place”
you’re ready for the next step. If he’s not quite there, repeat Step 2 but stand a
little further from the rug and closer to the Treat&Train™ system. Otherwise, go to
Step 3.
Step 3: Repeat Step 2, but with the Treat&Train™ system in many locations and
different distances from the rug.
