Here’s some reminder notes:
Think of brining the object of distraction out and having it around every day. Expose your dog to the object before every feeding time.
Work on manipulating the three elements of distractions that make the distraction more or less severe:
- Distance
- Movement
- Surprise
Be sure to follow a natural learning process. Start easy and let your dog adapt to incremental progressive challenge.
