Gus and I practiced tonight his jumping. We worked on keeping his head down. Debbie had asked us to work on jumping and then immediately going into a sit position. It seemed to me that this seemed to encourage him to keep his head up because he raises his head to sit. Instead of asking for the sit after the jump I placed the treat on the ground and rewarded him down low while he was standing. I want to ask Debbie about this next week at class.
We also worked on the box game. I shaped him putting his paw on the box. It took about 10 minutes but he stuck with it the whole time and kept offering different behaviors. Of course he would offer a down when ever he wasn't sure what to do.
